Falmouth is a great place for people of all ages to holiday. For those wanting to experience some action on the water, the two local beaches are ideal. Gyllynvase and Swanpool both offer a variety of activities, including kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing and sailing. Of course you can choose to just relax on the beach, or go for a swim!

Around the area are a number of other outdoor adventure activities, such as horse riding, go-karting, paintballing, and of course SURFING!!!

For a more relaxed day, you could visit Pendennis castle on the cliffs overlooking the town, or St. Mawes castle, which is a short ferry ride across the Fal estuary. The Maritime Museum is also worth visiting.

There are many family activities, from fishing boat trips out to sea in search of mackerel, where you may see a whole host of sea life, from gannets diving to catch fish, to seals, basking sharks and even dolphins!

Other popular places locally include Gweek seal sanctuary, the Eden Project, a number of historic houses and gardens, to name but a few!

Throughout the year, Falmouth holds host to a variety of events, such as the famous Oyster Festival, concerts at the Princess Pavilions, the Beer Festival, and many others.
