Polperro

A quieter neighbour to Looe, Polperro is closed to road traffic meaning all visitors have to walk down to the tiny port.
But the trip is well worth it for narrow alleys and scenic harbour side is the reward once the port is reached.

Falmouth

This town is probably Cornwall's busiest - a major port in its own right, it also has played host to major world-wild shipping events such as the Atlantic Challenge (1997) and the Tall Ships Race (1998).
