About Pedn Vounder

Pedn Vounder is a tidal beach in Cornwall, England, UK, covering an area of 52,918 square meters. It is 610 meters long and located near Treen village, 0.53 miles away. The beach is sandy and nearby there are six food options within 0.62 miles.

From Wikipedia

Pedn Vounder (grid reference SW393223) is a tidal beach on the south coast of the Penwith Peninsula in Cornwall, England. It is immediately to the west of the Logan Rock headland, below Treen Cliff. The name is from the Late Cornish 'pedn' (head, end) and 'an vownder' (of the lane).

Access to the beach is either by boat, or on foot from the coastal path along the cliffs. The top of this path may be approached from Porthcurno, approximately 0.75 mi (1.21 km) to the west, or from Treen, approximately 0.62 mi (1.00 km) to the north. The final stage of the descent from the coastal path requires some climbing down steep rocks at the western end of the beach. It is sometimes possible to walk from Porthcurno beach along the shore, during low water of a spring tide. In common with some of the other secluded coves on the Penwith peninsula, this beach is an unofficial naturist beach.
