Whether you’re hunting for rare fauna along the wind-beaten cliffs, searching for signs of the elusive otter or casting your gaze to the open seas for Cornwall’s resident dolphins, this stretch of coast is abundant in nature’s most remarkable wildlife.
❝ As well as that fantastic mining heritage, there's also a plethora of wildlife to discover. Both on the cliffs and in the ocean and in this amazing habitat that makes up the Tin Coast ❞
❝ Often the weather is shut in here, its windy and stormy and misty, and that’s when you need to start looking much closer. And if you get down and get close and personal you start to discover the hidden gems that we’ve got here. ❞
Steve Crummay from Explore in Cornwall made this short film, guiding us along the coast path to discover the wildlife of the Tin Coast.

❝ It’s rough and it’s wild and it’s got such an ancient feel, that’s part of the allure of it... there’s so much diversity for such a small area ❞
