The ancient town of Fowey (pronounced FOY) is located off of A3072 – it’s a delightful old fishing town built into the side of a hill. You will find the requisite narrow winding streets, a fine old church, various shops and eateries, an old abandoned castle, a beach, and very friendly people. Take the ferry to Poluran across the river to stroll through even narrower streets and visit an even older church.
Parking space is very limited, and there is much walking and climbing. Walk part of the coastal path and take in the views from the headlands. You can also take a car ferry across the river to explore even further.
