About St Michael’s Mount

The island world of St Michael’s Mount is one of the jewels in Cornwall’s crown. Hop on a boat – or walk across the causeway during low tide – to a community where modern life meets over a thousand years of history.

Home to the St Aubyn family as well as a small community, this iconic island is crowned by a medieval church and castle – with the oldest buildings dating to the 12th century. Immerse yourself in history, wonder at the architecture and discover the legend of Jack the Giant Killer.

Explore the sub-tropical terraced garden and enjoy breath taking views of Mount’s Bay.

Watch out for the tides!

This tidal island is governed by the forces of nature. Always check the website for the most up to date information before visiting.
