Rescue Dog Swimming and Training at Sea, Sennen Cornwall

Was a very windy day as you can hear...Sennen Cove is not a cove in the geological sense, and would be more properly described as a Bay. Sennen Cove, as distinct from Sennen Churchtown, is found at the end of a spur road which joins the A30 trunk road approximately one mile (1.5 km) from Land's End, the most westerly point of the English mainland. The road descends gently for about 300 yards (300 m) and then steeply for another 300 yards to the village which lies just above the beach at an altitude of just about 5m to 10m. The beach extends further north along the coast towards the peninsula of Cape Cornwall a few miles further to the north. There are a few dozen houses mainly built of granite and some of concrete mainly arranged in terraces, typical of many of the villages in Cornwall. Several submarine telecommunications cables are landed at Sennen Cove and are connected via landlines to the cable terminating equipment at Skewjack together with others from Porthcurno. . surfing.. Sennen Cove has become renowned for its surfing conditions and is highly regarded by local and non-local surfers alike. Sennen tends to be slightly more protected from winds and swell than Gwenvor at the other end of the bay. Many people have commented on Sennen's laid back and friendly atmosphere which adds to the feel of Sennen Cove, making it a popular tourist destination for holiday makers and surfers alike. Sennen is good at most tides, bar extreme high tide, works best with a westerly swell and a light easterly wind. Surf gear can be hired at the beach, situated next to a large car park and beach cafe.
