At low tide, there is a small beach, although it can be a bit pebbly. However, the beach is a perfect spot to relax and watch the boats go by. Moreover, Mullion Cove is an ideal place for exploring the local wildlife. There are plenty of lovely coastal paths to follow and you can observe an array of wildlife along the way. You may be lucky to see seals and dolphins in the sea and there are a variety of birds to look out for.
Walking along the coast path, visitors can look back and get amazing views of the harbour. The view of Mullion Island, located a few hundred metres off the coast, is particularly stunning. The island is an important breeding ground for various birds, including cormorants, gulls and oystercatchers.
