St Michael’s Mount is one of Cornwall’s most recognisable landmarks, offering a magical setting that captures the imaginations of travellers from near and far.
The tidal island, topped with a castle, mediaeval church and subtropical gardens, emerges from the waters of Mount’s Bay, just off the coast of the picturesque town of Marazion. It is accessible by boat or, at low tide, by the iconic cobbled causeway. Rich with history, local legends and unforgettable sights, St Michael’s Mount is certainly worth the trip! Here are just some of the things that make it so special.
