About Bass Point

Bass Point occupies a rugged coastal headland near the eastern tip of the Lizard Peninsula, offering steep serpentine sea cliffs. The rock character consists of dark, fine-grained serpentine with sharp edges, vertical jam cracks, and solid wire placements. Facing east into the English Channel, the crag gets morning sunlight and dries quickly in ocean winds, though sea mist can cause slickness. Route selection provides quality traditional routes from Severe to lower E-grades, with Bass Wall being a local highlight. The approach takes fifteen minutes along coastal trails from the Lizard village parking area followed by an abseil. Tidal timing is essential to avoid submerged belay ledges.
