The Cornish Beach and Treasures While on Covid Lockdown


Oh dear, here we are again under lockdown regulations because of the Covid virus. In England we have to stay home - other than for essential food gathering and limited exercise.

Anyway, these photos were taken just prior to the lockdown. We were walking along the coastal path and made a diversion on to a small beach.

Strange, as when we touched the cliffs, the sun popped out to say hello and the world looked a happier place.


The sea was a pleasant shade of blue-green


All was peaceful, with nobody else to be seen.


The sky darkened a little as we reached a bank of pebbles and stones.


We couldn't resist searching for some treasure to take home.


And below, some of our treasure. Okay, nothing too dramatic but ...


... our kitchen creatures seemed happy enough with our bounty.


The next day was full on lockdown, so we went for a walk from home. Nothing too exciting but there is always something to appreciate.


A train trundled by as we peeked over the bridge.


That's all for today. Stay safe.

  1. Hello Mike, I’m really enjoying your Cornwall pictures and walking posts. I am longing for a proper beach walk today, but with little ones in tow, a short car journey usually makes it easier. So we’re staying ‘local’ to Penryn. We did get a Flushing beach sesh in just before Lockdown #3 and like you, found a lovely trawl of sea glass and shell treasure. Take care, and I’ll visit again soon. Lulu x

    1. Hello Lulu, thanks so much for your interesting comment. Walking along various beaches, with all of that lovely fresh sea air, is our favourite form of exercise. I guess we have to be careful now though and stick by the rules.
      All good wishes, stay safe.
