Year: 1972

Kennack

I have been coming to Kennack since I was a toddler. But 1972 was the first of many years that stand out to me. My family met another family and we are still in touch now, 36 years and more later.

My memories are so many, borrowing beach donkeys and going off on safaris, making dens, rope swings across rivers. Getting lunch out of the hedge, black berries and toejam etc.

Memories of running around the costal path to Cadgwith, walking to the Draw Bar. boat trips on the Hairy Fairy. Floral day, Carn Brae pool when it was first built, Horse and Jockey, pastrys. Clotted cream eaten right from tub with fingers - no jam or scone. Swimming in Kennack Bay, body surfing on wooden boards, helping out in the beach cafe, etc etc

Now I scuba dive and learnt to dive on the Lizard at Poth Kerris and Porthaulstock. I still return to my favourite place. Long may Kennack stay as it is, unspoilt and beautiful.
