What is Sennen famous for...Shipwrecks and Smugglers!
The dangerous game of smuggling played a huge part in the history of Sennen - The First and Last Inn is known as one of the most famous dens for smugglers to store their hoards, in fact the whole village of was in on the smuggling trade! A shipwreck left behind to be broken down by the crashing waves is the RMS Mulheim - A large cargo vessel shipwrecked in 2003. Although not caused by smugglers, but a drunken captain's error! |
If you only do one thing...Surf!
Sennen gets as much swell as any north coast beach, although it has waves that suit all standards and is a good learners beach. Plus there is board hire right on the beach! The Sennen Surf centre is one of the longest running surf schools in the entire country, so they know a thing or two about how to catch some waves. |
