Godrevy Lighthouse is a iconic white tower perched on Godrevy Island, just off the western tip of St Ives Bay. Built in 1859, it warns ships of the dangerous Stones reef. The lighthouse is accessible on foot only at low tide via a causeway of sand and rocks, adding to its allure. Visitors can walk around the island, photograph the lighthouse against the sea, and enjoy stunning views of the bay and surrounding cliffs. The nearby Godrevy Headland offers excellent coastal walks and seal spotting.
