Mevagissey Harbour

Highlight • Historical Site

In the narrow streets of Mevagissey you find myriad shops, workshops, galleries, cafes and pubs, as well as many old buildings made of cob and slate. There are plenty of traditional fish and chip shops to try here, too. The picturesque town was once the centre of Cornwall’s pilchard fishery and, even today, still has a small working harbour with a few dozen fishing boats.

Portmellon Cove

Highlight • Viewpoint

Portmellon is a very small village and cove. The road closely hugs the sandy beach, which is completely covered by the sea at high tide.

There is a snack shack in the beach carpark and a pub next door if you are in need of sustenance.

If you approach Portmellon from the South West you will see the 'Beware Waves' sign on your left. Take heed on stormy days as the waves crash right over the road and can even hit the houses.
