Overview
Cornwall is a unique and distinctive county forming the southwestern peninsula of England. It is famous for its dramatic coastline of towering granite cliffs, golden sandy beaches, and picturesque fishing harbors. Often feeling culturally separate from the rest of England due to its strong Celtic roots, Cornwall offers a blend of wild, natural beauty and fascinating maritime and mining history. The region is a premier destination for travelers seeking outdoor adventure, historical exploration, and exceptional regional cuisine, especially fresh seafood.
While major cruise ships often call at nearby Plymouth or Falmouth, Cornwall's main attractions are easily accessible via shore excursions. The landscape is dotted with ancient stone circles, impressive medieval castles, and some of the world's most spectacular botanical gardens, providing a diverse range of activities for every visitor. The Cornish way of life is relaxed, centered around the sea and the rugged land, making it an unforgettable coastal experience.
Visit this world-renowned botanical garden complex, featuring two massive biomes that recreate tropical and Mediterranean climates. It's an incredible educational experience focused on plants and our reliance on them.
Tip: Book your tickets online in advance to save time and ensure entry during peak season.
Take a dramatic trip across the causeway (tide permitting) or by boat to this tidal island. Crowned by a medieval castle and church, it is Cornwall's iconic landmark.
Tip: Check the tide times carefully before you go; the walking causeway is only open at low tide.
Spend time in this beautiful coastal town, famous for its narrow cobbled streets, traditional fishermen's cottages, and status as a hub for artists and galleries.
Tip: Try a traditional Cornish pasty from a local bakery—it's the perfect savory, handheld meal.
Explore the legendary birthplace of King Arthur, perched dramatically on the North Cornwall coast. The new footbridge connects the mainland to the island, offering breathtaking views of the Atlantic.
Tip: The terrain is steep and uneven, so wear good walking shoes for climbing to the ruins.
Experience the quintessential Cornish beach life. Fistral Beach in Newquay is famous for surfing and has a lively atmosphere, perfect for sunbathing or watching the waves.
Tip: If you're interested in watersports, you can rent equipment and take a short surfing lesson right on the beach.
Dive into the region's rich sea-faring history at this award-winning museum, which showcases centuries of boat-building, fishing, and exploration.
Tip: The museum often features interactive exhibits and historical boats that are fun for all ages.
