About Falmouth
Falmouth is a Cornish port on a deep natural harbour, with a Tudor castle, town beaches, a maritime museum and subtropical gardens nearby.
Falmouth stands on the south coast of Cornwall, at the mouth of the River Fal, where the deep waters of Carrick Roads shelter boats of every size. A long main street of independent shops, galleries and cafés runs beside the harbour, and Pendennis Castle, a fort built for Henry VIII, guards the headland. Across the water, its twin St Mawes Castle is reached by a short ferry crossing, and the National Maritime Museum Cornwall stands on the waterfront.
