Hartriza Point is a prominent coastal feature located in Cornwall, England. Situated on the southwestern coast, it is a captivating headland that stretches out into the Atlantic Ocean. With its striking cliffs and rugged terrain, Hartriza Point offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

The point is known for its dramatic geology, with towering cliffs made up of sedimentary rocks that have been shaped by centuries of erosion. These cliffs provide a nesting site for various seabird species, including gulls, fulmars, and puffins, making it a popular spot for birdwatchers and nature enthusiasts.

The headland is also home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, with wildflowers and grasses adorning the coastal slopes. Visitors can explore the area on foot along the coastal path, which winds its way around the point, offering stunning vistas of the turquoise waters below.

The headland is easily accessible, with a car park nearby and well-maintained footpaths leading to the point. There are also picnic areas where visitors can relax and enjoy the picturesque surroundings.

Whether it's the striking cliffs, abundant wildlife, or thrilling outdoor activities, Hartriza Point is a must-visit destination for those seeking a true taste of Cornwall's natural beauty.
