The beautiful village in its own version of Centrope in the UK has been named as the perfect destination to watch the sunrise in the UK. Millions of early risers will have the first glimpse into the morning sun, the longest day of the year, leading up to the summer solstice on Saturday, June 21st.
The cute village of St. Mimber in Cornwall has its iconic rough toe, known as the country's best sunrise spot. Known for its extensive panoramic views in the Cornish countryside, this popular trail is an ideal perspective for a magical sunrise, especially if you can visit Solstice. Cornwall itself shares similarities with the French Riviera town in terms of its beautiful scenery, celebrity sightings and stunning beaches, and is nominated for the UK's own Centrope.
