A beach in the UK has been compared to the stunning shores of Majorca and Ibiza, thanks to its breathtaking scenery. One visitor recently described her trip to this much-loved destination.
A woman exploring the UK in search of its most scenic locations recently highlighted a stunning Cornish beach. Cornwall, with its array of beautiful shores and natural landscapes, draws tourists from all over Britain and beyond.
Cornwall is a beloved holiday spot in the UK, famed for its coastline, idyllic beaches, vibrant surfing scene, and attractions like the Eden Project and Tintagel Castle. British holidaymakers flock to the county for seaside escapades with their partners, families, or friends during the summer months, and Cornwall never disappoints. Lizzy Parkin, a travel blogger based in the Cotswolds, took to TikTok to share her latest coastal discovery in Cornwall.
She began by saying: “I’m on a mission to find places across the UK that make people say ‘I can’t believe this is the UK’ because as Brits, me included, we love to be negative about our own home but I’m trying to change that by sharing places that are undeniably beautiful and we’re starting strong with a spot near Penzance in Cornwall.”
Lizzy enthused: “This gem of a beach looks straight out of Majorca or Ibiza if you ask me, though the water is a little colder.”
She also mentioned that it’s “located on the most beautiful coastal path” but cautioned that the walk down isn’t the easiest, involving a “short scramble” to reach the beach, so she advised potential visitors to tread carefully when heading to this location.
The travel fan called the scenery on the way down to the beach “absolutely unreal” and revealed that it is Pedn Vounder Beach, found near the village of Treen in Cornwall.
Nestled among the cliffs of Treryn Dinas, Pedn Vounder boasts crystal clear turquoise waters and white sands.
Cornwall Beaches recognises it as West Cornwall’s most famous spot for naturism, but Lizzy noted in her TikTok post’s comments that the beach was mostly full of visitors wearing swimsuits and a sign indicates it’s not entirely a nudist beach.
Cornwall Beaches explains that Pedn Vounder lies at the eastern end of Porthcurno cove, with the renowned Logan Rock perched atop the headland to the east, a massive granite boulder delicately balanced on the cliff tops of Treen.
Lizzy’s TikTok footage showcasing the breathtaking beauty of Pedn Vounder Beach has racked up 412,000 views, 45,000 likes, and over 200 comments so far.
One user raved: “Pedn Vounder is the best beach in the UK. Took my breath away when I first saw it recently. As good as any beach anywhere in the world!”
Another commented: “Just got back from Thailand and Pedn Vounder was as beautiful as.”
A third was astounded: “I can’t believe this is the UK!!! Wow.” And a fourth echoed: “Okay but I can’t believe this is the UK.”
