Description
The Lizard's coast is particularly hazardous to shipping
and the seaways round the peninsula were historically
known as the "Graveyard of Ships". Smuggling was a regular way of life in Cornwall and smugglers were always hiding from Coastguards or "Preventive men" as they were also known. In 1801, the King's Pardon was offered to any smuggler giving information on the Mullion musket men involved in a gunfight with the crew of HM Gun Vessel Hecate.
The Lizard peninsula is also renowned as the birthplace of modern communication, where Marconi undertook some of his pioneering radio experiments. You can find out all about these experiments at the Marconi Centre in Poldhu and the Lizard Wireless Station.
There are many rare forms of wildlife and plants around the Lizard including the rare Chough, which is a species of crow and has a distinctive red beak and legs.

The picture should allow to identify you as a geocacher.
