Fowey Harbour, a small town and cargo port nestled at the mouth of the River Fowey, boasts a rich trade history. The town's safe waters fueled its prosperity in medieval times, even serving as a base for privateers during the 100 Years' War. Reminders of this era stand guard along the estuary – blockhouses and St. Catherine's Castle, commissioned by Henry VIII. Explore the Fowey Estuary, a broad canyon where the river meets the English Channel. Witness the charmingly huddled houses lining the shores of Fowey and Polruan, along with hundreds of yachts dotting the water during the summer months. Take a magical stroll along the Esplanade, offering breathtaking views of Readymoney Cove and St. Catherine's Castle. Explore the town's narrow streets, brimming with original Cornish arts and crafts, and savor the flavors of locally produced food.
