Falmouth is a truly vibrant town these days with a buzzing atmosphere that has been enhanced by the recent addition of the University, this has led to huge diversity of restaurants and any foodie is going to love the choices are frequent events held in the town including the Shanty Festival, Falmouth Sailing Week, which is a sight to behold with hundreds of yachts racing on the water, Falmouth Oyster Festival. The Tall Ships often make an appearance all of which adds to the maritime culture. Pendennis Shipyard, which is based at Falmouth Docks, build and restore some of the most stunning and elegant superyachts in the world, and they too are regular visitors to the harbour. There are excellent ferry links from The Prince of Wales Pier and Custom House Quay that link to Flushing, The Roseland Peninsula, Malpas, Trelissick gardens and Truro. (check Fal River Links for timetables and status) There is always activity on the water, from commercial operations, with ships being guided in and out by the pilot boats, divers off seeking the best wrecks, yachtsmen enjoying the natural splendour of the harbour that can afford protection no matter the wind direction, to helicopters from Culdrose performing exercises at sea.
The Roseland Peninsula is a boat ride away on the iconic blue ferries, or if you want to explore the further afield take the King Harry car ferry. The traditional fishing villages of St Mawes and Portscatho are a delight, although now the fishing industry has been replaced by boutique tourism, there are many fine local pubs and restaurants, art galleries aplenty and if walking is your thing then a multitude of glorious coastal walks, with castles, lighthouses, golden sandy beaches, secluded coves and majestic promontories all within touching distance of the sea, be it azure blue and crystal clear, or raging angry with crashing surf, every day on this stretch of the coastline is an experience you will not forget.
The Lizard is also within a short drive and you could easily spend a week pottering up the Helford River, the inspiration for Daphne Du Maurrier's novel Frenchman's Creek, there are riverside pubs and glorious walks aplenty. There are picturesque little fishing villages of Coverack and Cadgwith, and the glorious beach at Kennack Sands. The Lizard itself is magnificent, lunch in one of the cafes overlooking the point is an experience you will not forget, Kynance Cove in its magnificent splendour, Goonhilly Downs and the radio telescopes, Gweek and it's seal sanctuary, Poldark Mine, the list is endless.
There are a tremendous range of beautiful gardens across this part of Cornwall, all making the most of the sub-tropical climate. these include, Trelissick Gardens, Enys Gardens, Trebah and Glendurgan, they are all well worth a visit, as is the old dynamite factory at Kennal Vale, a stunning valley with derelict waterwheels and a plethora of leats that fed them with little waterfalls, on a sunny day this is one of the most picturesque spots in the county.
