'We must make good time today' Trying to get away quickly	Sweep of Mounts Bay: St Michael's Mount and Maen-du Point	Business ventures: Piskies' Cove, one of two smuggling coves beneath the village of Prussia Cove
Bessy's Cove: This is the other, and was the main harbouring point	Kenneggy Sands: Sand is not actually going to be in short supply for this next stretch	Praa Sands: A big dose of the holiday industry - currently mostly shut
Golden expanse: But it is easy to see why it is so popular	Wheal Prosper: Engine house between Rinsey Head and Trewavas Head	Curious geology: Unusual rock formations at Trewavas Head
Approaching The Lizard: A startlingly clear indication of where its unique geology begins	Above Trequean Cliff: Unfortunately, walkers who have gone up often have to go down...	Rest stop: At the bottom of Trequean Cliff, with a steep climb ahead, we felt like leaving them there
	Porthleven harbour: Very welcome - and a very pleasant place to stay, recommended
