Lizard: Lizard Point 
Description
Despite all the hype that Lands End (50.07N) tries to push out, the Southern most point on the island of Great Britain is Lizard Point (49.96N) - at the end of the Lizard peninsular that runs south from Helston. The peninsular has a number of pretty sandy coves and stunning scenery, along with the other worldly sight of the Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station. It also benefits from not that many people knowing it's the Southern most point of Great Britain, so is much less crowded and lacks the levels of tat (and money extraction) of it's North Westerly counterpart.

Getting There
From Penzance you need to take the First Kernow U4 bus (hourly 55 minutes) to Helston and change there onto either the First Kernow L1 bus (every 2 hours Monday-Saturday, 1 hour) or the Go Cornwall 34 Bus (Hourly Monday-Saturday, every 2 hours on a Sunday, 1 hour) down to the end of the route at The Lizard: Green. From the Green it's a 10-15 minute well signed walk down to Lizard point - the final couple of hundred yards are down some quite steep steps or a steep and slightly slippery path.Latitude: 49.958917; Longitude: -5.206367
