About The Gannel
About The Gannel in Criggan
It is part of Cornwall’s coast offering — useful for swim, surf, sandcastle days, or a cliff-top walk depending on the stretch. Tide, wind, and lifeguard cover change through the year. It also sits within easy reach of the wider Criggan area, so it works well as part of a longer Cornish itinerary rather than a single stop.
