Falmouth is well known for its picturesque natural harbour, hidden creeks and sandy beaches. Walkers and dog owners love the quiet, undulating coast path with far reaching views out to sea. For the more adventurous, there are fishing trips or sea safaris from the pier or perhaps a ferry over the water to discover the delights of St Mawes and the Roseland Peninsula. Enjoy dining in one of the many restaurants, cafes and pubs or explore the winding streets of town with an eclectic assortment of boutiques, craft shops and galleries.
