    Tips

    Fowey is a traditional town located at the mouth of the river Fowey. The Coast Path leads from Fowey to the Gribbin Tower at the Polperro Herritage Coast. The town has been in existence since before 1300; the estuary of the River Fowey forms a natural harbour which enabled the town to become an important trading centre. Privateers also made use of the sheltered harbour. The Lostwithiel and Fowey Railway brought China clay here for export too.

      Very tourist centric. Expensive. Good parking on the outskirts, not fun to drive through. Has a ferry to Mevagissey - best to book in advance.

        Beautiful small harbor town with ferry connections to neighboring Polruan.
