Chrissie
Very interesting site. Lots of work still to be done but very different to all the other historic sites. It will be brilliant in a few years to see how unusual this settlement was when they have done more excavation. Definitely worth a visit if you are interested in the pirate and shipping history entry. Dogs on leashes.
Arwyn
Sounded promising but was unexpectedly closed for staff absences when visited. Site is fenced off so no access although you can see excavations. Not able to see the harbour but did spot the newly found stairs to the acropolis. Great story...

Entry to the site is free. There’s an interesting app that you can download that allows you to see what the site might have looked like in antiquity. There’s a QR code at the entrance to download it. The last part of the way there is an unpaved road. The road is rough, but doable even in a small car.

The historical notes are interesting and the place has an empty loveliness. There are nice short walks to rocky bits of coastline around there too, though mind your step! Bear in mind it’s only open 9-2 on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. You can walk from the Orange Blue bar car park for a bit more exercise, but don’t expect more than a short trek on unmetalled road past the ubiquitous poly tunnel greenhouses.

We had to view these ruins from outside the fenced area: the main site is only open between 9:00 and 2:00 pm Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Despite this we enjoyed what we could see. It's partially excavated and there are various things of note outside the fenced-off section. It's very close to the sea and another visitor showed us an image of a sunken boat that he had taken. We couldn't see it ourselves - you need greater agility than we have over the rocks to where the sea starts. Saying all that - we enjoyed the visit.
