Millook Haven is a picturesque bay located on the rugged north coast of Cornwall, England. Situated between the popular coastal towns of Bude and Boscastle, this secluded haven offers a tranquil escape from the bustling tourist areas.
The bay is renowned for its dramatic cliffs and unique geological formations, which attract both nature enthusiasts and geology aficionados. The towering cliffs, composed of folded and contorted rock layers, create a striking backdrop against the crashing waves of the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors can witness the power of nature as the waves sculpt the cliffs and create fascinating patterns on the rocky shoreline.
Millook Haven is also home to a pebble beach, making it an ideal spot for beachcombing and enjoying the sound of the waves. The beach is not suitable for swimming due to strong currents, but it provides an excellent vantage point for admiring the scenic beauty of the bay.
Surrounding the bay are rolling fields and farmland, adding to the peaceful ambiance of the area. Moreover, the nearby Millook woods offer a picturesque walking trail through ancient woodland, providing a serene retreat for nature lovers.
Due to its remote location and lack of tourist infrastructure, Millook Haven remains relatively uncrowded, making it a hidden gem for those seeking solitude and natural beauty. It is a place where visitors can appreciate the untamed coastline, breathe in the fresh sea air, and immerse themselves in the raw beauty of Cornwall's natural landscape.
