Loe Pool and Loe Bar
naturalCornwall's largest natural freshwater lake, separated from the sea by a great shingle bar in a manner that has inspired legends of sunken cities and Arthurian tales. The National Trust land encircling the lake makes for one of the finest walks on the Lizard — through woodland, past the water's edge, and over the bar to the beach. The site has an atmosphere unlike anywhere else in Cornwall.
