About Plymouth
Plymouth is a naval port on Devon's south coast, where the Mayflower sailed from in 1620, with a grassy waterfront hoe and a sheltered sound.
Plymouth lies on a broad natural harbour, Plymouth Sound, between the rivers Plym and Tamar. The Hoe, a grassy headland above the water, carries Smeaton's Tower, a red-and-white lighthouse moved from the Eddystone Rocks, and legend has Sir Francis Drake finishing a game of bowls here before facing the Spanish Armada. The Royal Citadel, a seventeenth-century fortress, stands on the eastern side.
