Is this CORNWALL’S most beautiful sea cave? Snorkelling a FALMOUTH Beach | CORNISH SEA

- I thought I would ask the question is this Cornwall’s most beautiful sea cave which is found just off from a Falmouth beach. During a little trip to Falmouth’s Maenporth beach I set off on a little snorkel adventure to find some hidden gems. And low and behold just around the corner were several caves and a small private cove. Thanks to my DJI Mavic Mini I was able to get a glimpse of what was to come before I set off on my adventure. If you love cornwall and love Falmouth then you will definitely love this video and also don’t forget to Love Sundays by hitting the subscribe button. Thank you for watching.

I make a weekly VLOG under the channel name of Love Sundays. I visit all my favourite places in Cornwall & Devon in the UK. They’re not so much tours but more like videos of beautiful locations with a bit of information thrown in.

Don’t forget to subscribe for more videos about CORNWALL and Falmouth I sometimes visit St Ives Cornwall and Padstow Cornwall too. Come here for everything from travel recommendations to beach reviews such as Perranporth Beach Cornwall. I also LOVE EXPLORING Cornwall’s coast line and the South West Coastal Path. Thank you for watching and commentingand liking the video.
I do enjoy watching your videos not just for the underwater footage and lovely scenery but your positive attitude about everything keep up the good work❤️👍
Thank you Marko that’s really good to hear. I really want this channel to be nice and positive. Thanks for commenting 👍
I hope you all enjoy this little snorkel video. I’d just like to say don’t forget to look after yourselves and do what makes you happy. Also don’t forget to Love Sundays and subscribe for more Cornwall related videos. 👍
Thank you for sharing this wonderful video and mentioning the importance of looking after your mental health. I loved everything about it. I kayaked last summer in that exact spot! I wild swim, coastal walk, and bike ride to keep my mental health in check. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for watching. I’m really glad you enjoyed the video and the topic I raised in this video. This coast line really is beautiful isn’t it. Wow you hobbies sound like everything I enjoy doing on this channel. Thanks for commenting too 😊
Thank you for another relaxing video! What a beautiful find of those two caves!
Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
For me connecting with nature is a must for my mental wellbeing, whether that's being in the country side or working in the garden. Also the gym is an important part of my life and keeps me sane & healthy 😎
Great vlog again Shaun and I'm counting down the days now when I'll be able to get in the Cornish sea! 🤗😎👌
Thank you for watching Andrew glad you enjoyed the video. Yes exercise and the outside environment gives you a healthy mind. I bet you can’t wait to get the water and it’s actually starting to warm up now too. 👍
@@LoveSundays literally can't wait😁 Definitely hope so as my wetsuits only 2/3mm one🤔 😨😁
When are you coming down? 3/2mm should be fine from June anyway 👍
@@LoveSundays I'll be down Whitsun week so all's good 😎
Great video. Love the underwater shots and the cave was a real find. Keep up the good work!
Thank you really glad you enjoyed the video 👍
I do love a good cave. Your so lucky to have this around you. Reminds me of back home in Ireland.
Thank you and yes I feel very lucky to just have it on my doorstep. I can’t believe I’ve never seen the cave before being that it’s just around the corner from one of my favourite beaches
Loved the underwater footage
Cheers Terry
Thanks so much for the mention, Shaun :) Loved that view from inside the mini cave, cor! And great music for the swimming sequences. I so enjoy your swimming videos.
The thing that helps my mental health is getting out for a long-ish walk each day, wherever I go. Ideally beach, or countryside but city walks are nice too (which is lucky as I live in one...) Walking keeps me sane.
Glad you enjoyed the video Vicky. I only ever recommend channels that I really enjoy watching and I really enjoy your videos. They’re very chilled out and relaxing. I think a lot of my viewers will love them too. Walks are great and I enjoy them too. I just need to get outside at least once a day so a walk or a swim or something. We’re very lucky to have such beauty on our door steps.
@@LoveSundays Aww thanks very much! I'm so glad you find them relaxing. Yeah we are really lucky to live in such a beautiful place, and whenever I am having a mardy moment I remind myself of that and how many people would happily swap places with me in order to live here! Looking forward to the next vid.
I couldn’t agree more Vicky.
Yes! Maenporth! Love it! Great Video Mate! Keep it up! Beautifully done Shots! Thank you👍
No worries Alex. I’m just about to watch your vid mate
@@LoveSundays Thank you, I took My Video down, Due to alot of errors and All kinds of Problems! I will probably go out this evening abit like you and get an evening video done somewhere! Sorry about that! Have you got any recommendations on where I could go? All the best
Depends how you’re getting their mate. If you’ve got some form of transport go to Kynance cove and get the sunset if you’re on foot maybe check the Swanpool to Maenporth coastal path. Some great views from up there but you already know that 😆
@@LoveSundays Kynance is a brilliant Idea, but probably abit to far today, Maybe Maenporth to swanpool or the other way round, I'm really not sure yet, thanks for the ideas Mate 👍 means alot
No worries mate 👍
Another brilliant video Shaun. I haven't snorkeled in years and you're definitely making me want to do it again.
I think you definitely should start again Colin. I’ve kind of got an addiction to it now 😆
Great video Shaun, amazing that such places exist ‘just around the corner’! Love the Indra too!👍🏽
Thank you for watching glad you enjoyed the video
Another great vlog Shaun love your music once again and your great camera shots watching them always puts a smile on my face keep it up
Thought you might like the music xx
Loved this video shaun nice snorkel and great idea with the bag. My mental state is always better after i have been snorkeling it sets me up for the day and also following your channel. Thanks for all your work you put in for our enjoyment👍👍
Thanks Nigel that means a lot. I was planning on another snorkel this weekend but the weather was awful. Might pop out again one evening this week if the weather settles. Thank you for continuing to watch
Really enjoyed that. Great underwater footage too.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching Super Nova hope you liked the drone shots 👍
Awesome swim, brother.. very relaxing..
Thank you you two. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
that intro tho 😂I came for the dope snorkel shots but I stayed for the zip lock bag haha! Good point well made about the mental health stuff, I always enjoy the positivity on your channel mate
Cheers mate. Yea I actually messed up what I was saying as it’s actually a drawstring bag 😆.! But yea I do try to keep this channel positive there’s enough negativity in the world isn’t there. Thanks for watching mate 👍
Cracking video again shaun. And what an amazing find those to caves wow. I also like your speech at the beginning because everyone is fighting there own battle and you never know what people are going through! My favorite thing to do is clay pigeon shooting it totally clears my mind anf relaxes me. Keep up the good work.
Wow clay pigeon shooting a bit that’s a lot of fun. I think I did it once in my younger years but probably didn’t hit anything else I probably wouldn’t remembered doing it. And yes everyone is fighting their own battles and some times unfortunately you become their punching bag but that’s just the way things are I guess. I’m just all about staying positive and letting things slide. Life’s too short. Thanks for watching Jon 👍
@@LoveSundays clay shooting is a lot off fun and I travel the Country doing it! Definitely, life is to short and I'm the same as you, I'm pretty laid back so let 99% off things go over my head, a nice stress free life is the way forward mate. 😁😁
I couldn’t agree more Jon. There’s way too much negativity in this world hence why I really want this channel to be a really positive place with light hearted fun. Hopefully most of my viewers get that that’s what I’m trying to get across 😊
Great vid once again
Cheers Ollie mate. Glad you enjoyed it
Great adventure 👍keep it up👍👍
Thank you so much 👍👍
Great video as usual Shaun, your videos keep us all sane, great idea for collecting rubbish. Laters. 👍🦊
Thanks Jon 🦊. I hope the house hunting is going better for you 👍
@@LoveSundays thanks Shaun, we are coming down, probably with the rest of country to have a good look around. 👍🦊
How exciting Jon I get you can’t wait. Make sure if you see me out and about come say hello 👍
@@LoveSundays definitely mate, when I’m down for good and your favourite pub is open I’ll buy you a pint.👍⚽️
Cheers Jon that’s really kind mate. You’ll probably see me at the bar at the Chainlocker in Falmouth at some point once they let us back in that is anyway 😆
This is lovely ! Thank you 😊 I used to live in Falmouth - moving back to Cornwall in a couple of months 😊 xx
Glad you enjoyed it Emma. Yea Falmouth is great isn’t it. I love living here. A lot of my videos are based in Falmouth but I try to get all over Cornwall to make videos too. Thanks for watching 😊
Epic vlog dude. Super chilled out dude vine with a positive message. For me, it's about the sea, as long as I am by the sea I am happy. However when I am away its the total opposite. Ups and downs haha. Good on you for Grabbing that plastic. I normally fill my SUP travel net with it haha. 😁.
Thanks you two. Yea I’m with you if I’m not near the sea I do get very grumpy. There’s something about the sea air that just relaxes me. I know that grabbing a few bits of plastic won’t change the world but I hope my videos will encourage others to do the same and maybe one day we’ll make a difference 👍
@@LoveSundays 100% that dude 🤙
I really love these swimming videos of yours, and all the effort you are making to make them stand out. Do you actually bring a drone to film yourself from above while swimming? I also admire that you are so serious about picking up plastic. And those caves were amazing to watch! I have luckily no serious mental issues, but I like walking in the nature. It can be quite mentally draining to have constant pain and other physial challenges, so I also do my best to take care of my physical health to avoid physical issues. I also like to knit and sew and to read books. Keeping contact with friends and family also gives me great joy. And last but not least, it gives me a great pleasure to watch videos like yours :-) Thank you :-)
Thank you Torunn, I take the drone with me to the beach and normally fly it before I get in the water to give me an idea of where I’m going and then I just put the footage in to show a different view of where I’m swimming. It sounds like you have so many hobbies that keep you active which is fantastic and it’s always great keep in contact with friends and family. I try to set an example with my litter picking and my hatred from graffiti, I really want to encourage people to pick up litter if they see it whether it’s their litter or not. I mean don’t get me wrong me picking up 1 plastic bottle isn’t going to save our oceans but if we all do our part then they will improve. Thank you for continuing to watch 😊
Nice to see some fishies in the sea 😁
Yes I thought the same Kelly they normally swim off when I’m around them but I think the trick is to go around the corner where they’re not used to humans and the tend to hang around a bit more 😊
Keep up the great work 💪
I'm back to Cornwall next month and I can't wait
I bet you can’t. Where abouts are you going in Cornwall?
Perranporth seems to be my spiritual home.
We normally stay around North Cornwall but would like to explore some other areas this time any ideas ?.
Perranporth is fantastic but I would definitely recommend a trip to Falmouth, Kynance Cove, Port Issac and Porthtowan beach. These are some of my favourite spots
Brilliant video, can really see how much work goes into making each video! Really enjoyed watching :) I like to walk on gyllyngvase beach and swanpool beach (both Falmouth too, so lucky to live here) and look for sea glass :)
Thank you Holly. Glad you enjoyed the video. Yes I’ve made a few Swanpool and Gylly videos too. I even made one of Arthur’s beach between Swanpool and Maenporth. 👍
@@LoveSundays oh lovely I’ll give them a watch! Thank you :)
No worries 👍
Love it! ❤
Great Vid!
Thanks mate 👍
Nice video Shaun 👍🏼
Thanks Jon 👍👍
Another Good video, ditch those full foot fins, go boots and pocket fins. Also those really small caves and gulleys be careful, every cubic metre of seawater is over one tonne! On a ever so slightly choppy day in a tight spot like that it can actually slam you hard, and you won't realise it until your right in close, as it will look benign. 👍
Thanks for the tips. Yea I quickly gave up on the little bit of plastic when I realised how strong the water was coming in. I actually have some pocket fins but don’t use them very much because they’re very heavy but will probably get some new lighter ones as they’re at least 20 years old. Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it .
Great video mate and your right we all need our go to places I'm a 10 minute walk from countryside though it is disappearing rapidly.I as you can probably tell i love flying my drone walking and photography oh and my dog flo...lol oh and the wife of course..."phew"!
😆 don’t forget about the wife Johnny. I’m glad that your hobbies keep you happy. Keep the drone videos coming too. Thanks for continuing to watch 👍
@@LoveSundays how could I forget Mrs mac ...never! Lol
😆
🤔 i wish I could get my new chest zip on like that @2:37 . Maybe you should do a how to video? 😀
Round to the right and a straight on till morning 😂 Cool Cave! Where’s Dunlop?
I left him in the car he’s afraid of getting stuck on an beach again 😆
Great content 👌
Thanks Andrew glad you enjoyed it. 👍
As you asked about mental heath in these times, well thats why i started my channel about getting out of the ghetto and stealth car camping in nice places with no money. maybe you could use your experience to do a Vanlife park up guide, places you can visit and park over night down there.
That would be good wouldn’t it. Be very useful for people to know too. Thanks for watching mate
@@LoveSundays its one of those you can use bits of old footage to make a video saying about if you can free park
7M 🤔😄. I pulled a McCains oven chips bag out of the sea in the Maldives 🥺😔.
Went snorkelling today at lulworth cove to test out our new 4/3 wetsuits. Water temp 11deg and we enjoyed being in it. Bit of a disaster though. Forgot a decent camera, left the GoPro screws in the car so couldn't attach it to anything and visibility was pants. Ah well I thoroughly enjoyed my wetsuit experience just floating around effortlessly in the cold sea 😎👍
Ah also I had gloves but no hood and putting my shaved head in the water gave me brain freeze.
I bet those chips were really salty
@@LoveSundays lol, Actually saying that the sea there didn't taste bad lol. Not like here where it's disgustingly salty.
@@slabbyrider8665 I get days like that when you head out into the sea and can’t see anything but you’re right it’s still nice to be out in the water whether you can see or not. 4/3 is a good thickness for this time of year. I’d still wear a hood though 😆. I’ve got to wear my 5/3 until July and then I’ll get in my summer suit which is a 3/2 then no gloves or hood too. Freedom at its best 😆
Hi Could you recommend a good beach for snorkelling for beginner s ,hubby and daughter have just bought the full face mask s we are stopping near Redruth 💙
There are lots of great snorkel spots on the south coast where the rip currents and tides are more friendly and safer for snorkelling. Some great spots are Gunwalloe, or even Marazion on a nice calm day. My favourite is Maenporth as it has can be quite shallow so you don’t have to go out too far and as you get more confident you can gradually go deeper as and when you want to. I offer take my newphew to Maenporth for a snorkel he isn’t the most confident in the water and he finds this beach comfortable and he’s 7. 👍
@@LoveSundays great thanks for the tips
@@Princesslazybum1 no worries 👍
Fantastic video, sorry I don't know you're name?
Thanks Dave 👍 my name is Shaun. Glad you enjoyed the video. I make video each week of my adventures around Cornwall 👍
Nice mate! I was at Maenporth the other evening, its a lovely beach there. Well done for taking the time to do more things you love. Round to the right at Maenporth is really nice eh 😁
Algal bloom has really buggered up the underwater visibility in places hasn't it, hopefully it will clear up soon. 🤞
Another brilliant video, hope you are keeping well 👍
Thanks mate. Yea this was Thursday evening around 6ish if you ever see me out and about come say hello 👍
