Geocaches - 7
Walk Inspiration
Last Night
Our final day on holiday. Where to eat. Well, something is missing from this holiday and that is Fish and Chips by the seaside. We do our research - even the Chippers are on TripAdvisor these days - we return to the location of our 2nd Walk, St Agnes.
You know you are in good hands when there is a queue and when you get to the front, you are asked "what type of fish would you like?". I didn't get asked what type of cow I wanted when I had a steak on Tuesday? Looking like I know what I am doing, I peruse the whiteboard and recognise Pollock. You wait for it to be cooked, but handily, the people that own the Chipper own the Driftwood Spa pub. So pint, beer garden and then the shout of 35.
Top pollocks.
Then drama - people start running to the beach, including the bar man who had given me my Skinners. Everyone leaves their chips and makes their way to the RNLI lifeboat. I am tempted to head back in the bar, as it is now unguarded, but there is much excitement. The lifeboat looks like its going to get launched. Cue 10 minutes of more men running downhill and some delicate reversing of a tow truck in and out of a garage and then its all over. False alarm.
The Walk
Holywell at EveryTrail
At times during this week, I have claimed to have found the best part of the SW Coast Path. I have been lying. This is it. An absolutely wonderful walk.
We start off at the National Trust car park. I am offered the chance to join, and I will. Just as soon as I retire.
In a first for this week, we walk away from the coast and through a caravan park, with a strange dune system to our right. Nice stream and first micro cache of the day.

Another cache is the only disturbance from the clicking of both our cameras.
We walk around the headland, making our way to Porth Joke. The views just keep on coming.
