Photos of Prussia Cove
and its surroundings

Bessy's Cove is one of the coves at Prussia Cove. A sandy beach with rocks and pools to explore and a fascinating history with a long association with smugglers, particularly John Carter, the 'King of Prussia'.

Prussia Cove is dog friendly all year round.

The colour of summer. Hottentot Fig (Carpobrotus edulis) carpets the cliffs at Bessy's Cove, (Prussia Cove) with its succulent leaves and colourful flowers.

This view is from the Cornwall Coast Path between Praa Sands and Prussia Cove. Kenneggy Sands can be seen with Prussia Cove in the distance.

One of the three stunning coves at Prussia Cove. Piskies Beach is the most difficult to access but just the view of the cove from the coast path above is reward enough for the walk from the car park.

If you're walking the Cornwall Coast Path from Marazion towards Praa Sands, you'll encounter Piskies Cove shortly after Cudden Point.

Walking to the coast path via a public footpath near Prussia Cove.

There's a small car park for Prussia Cove then you walk back up the lane for a short distance until you see a public footpath sign on the left. The path takes you between fields before opening out onto a pasture for sheep. Please keep dogs on a lead and don't worry the sheep.

The view of Mount's Bay with the Mount, Marazion and Penzance stretches before you.

The footpath reaches the coast path at Cudden Point, a stunning headland looked after by the National Trust.

The path can be muddy at times so please wear suitable footwear.
