Pedn Vounder

Pedn Vounder (grid reference SW393223) is a tidal beach on the south coast of the Penwith Peninsula in Cornwall, England.

The final stage of the descent from the coastal path requires some climbing down steep rocks at the western end of the beach.

[3] Signs on the cliff above the beach warn that swimming off the far side of the sand bar is dangerous due to strong currents.

In 1880, a wooden hut was built above the beach to house a submarine communications cable from Brest, France.

It connected with a land line running via the Trereen valley, and by Burnewhall to Sheffield and on to Newlyn and Penzance.
