Falmouth
Falmouth is the leading south coast resort in Cornwall. An historic maritime town, it is now home to the National Maritime Museum Cornwall. Pendennis Castle and it's twin at St Mawes, were built by Henry VIII to guard what is the third largest natural harbour in the world. Ellen MacArthur finished her record breaking solo round the world voyage here in February 2005. With 4 bathing beaches, magnificent walks along the cliff tops, and a bustling waterfront marina, Falmouth is the perfect base from which to see Cornwall.
