Fowey Estuary
Bustling historic
Cornwall port looking out across the
River Fowey and Estuary towards
Polruan and to the sea beyond. Packed with pubs and restaurants, boats and tourists.
Within the
Cornwall Area of Outstanding Beauty, the small town follows the shape of the coastline towards
Fowey St Catherine's Castle. If you're not staying in the town or surrounding area, there's plenty of parking and it's a short walk downhill into Fowey's narrow streets, brighly coloured buildings, wharves and quays.
The Town Quay (a hundred yards or so from
Fowey St Fimbarrus Church) is a great place to eat, drink and people watch. You could also spend a day watching all the boats moving up and down the spectacular estuary.
Local attractions
Local attractions include
Fowey Museum and
Fowey Aquarium, the Daphne du Maurier Literary Centre and St Catherine's Castle.
River cruises and boat trips out to sea are available. Longer trips across St Austell Bay to
Mevagissey and

The Eden Project is about five miles as the crow flies and the
Cornish Alps beyond that. To the north, visit the National Trust's
Lanhydrock House and Gardens.
