The legend of Merlin the wizard
Visit the beach below the castle and explore Merlin's Cave when the tide is out. The cave fills with water at high tide, but has a sandy floor and is explorable at low tide. The cave goes all the way through the rock.
On the beach, close to Merlin's Cave, a discreet carved face represents Merlin, who has been associated with the site since the 12th century and immortalised by the poetry of Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Tennyson described waves bringing the infant Arthur to the shore, and Merlin carrying him to safety.
Search for Merlin's face hidden in the rocks on the beach.
Take a Picture from the face with you and / or your GPS.
Thanks!
More pictures from the waterfall and the cave are welcome! 
happy geocaching

found the geocache
In our south shore vacation tour we are moving from Falmouth to Torquay just now. In between we are visiting Tintagel Castle. What a stunning landscape - Dark Rocks, white surf, turquoise water, green hills and some ruins of the castle - Great!
Merlins face was not that easy to find - But at the end successfull.
Thx for this nice cache. Not always these earth caches - What Kind of stone, what time period, bla bla... Focus to a nice detail on a nice place.
Best regards Pizza

found the geocache
Auf unserer Rundreise durch den Süden von England haben wir viel gesehen und auch viele Caches besucht. Dieser war einer davon. Das Finden war recht problemlos und so bedanken wir uns fürs Legen und Pflegen.

found the geocache
Einen OC in UK auf OC.de einzustellen, ist wohl leider noch weniger fruchtbar als in DE - so what, da bleibt ja das Logbuch halt nur 3,5 Jahre leer...
Vielleicht macht ein Einstellen auf OC UK mehr Sinn. https://opencache.uk/
Anyhow, wir waren nicht unten an der Höhle, deshalb ein Foto von oben und endlich ein Log hier...
Schöne Grüße, AndreIsaPaul und Luke!
