Whether you are driving, walking, cycling or pony trekking, the spectacular cliff scenery along the Peninsula’s coastal roads are breathtaking.  Looking out to sea there is always the chance of seeing dolphins or whales, soaring gannets and kittiwakes or perhaps, a seal popping its head above water.
