England meets Caribbean on Cornwall's beaches: St. Ives and Kynance Cove

The Caribbean in England? Yeah, right ... cue my eye rolls. And to be fair, it is not quite the Caribbean (who would have thought), but seriously, Kynance Cove is a stunning stretch of landscape that I did not expect to see in Cornwall of all places. Its clear waters and colourful surrounds certainly do have a vibe that does not remind you of puritan Britain. And then there is, of course, St. Ives - 'the' Cornish seaside destination. Both of them not to be missed. KYNANCE COVE:
