Falmouth with the National Maritime Museum
The whole of the Roseland Peninsula all the way to St Mawes taking in the numerous little fishing villages and coves and of course taking the famous King Harry Ferry going across the river towards Falmouth.
The picturesque river estuary town of Fowey - nice novelty shops/walks by the river/restaurants/boat trips up the river.
The cathedral city of Truro, excellent shopping, a splendid cathedral and the boat trip down the river to Falmouth is well recommended.
