About the area
Cornwall, England, is a mesmerizing destination that offers a blend of breathtaking natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture. The county is celebrated for its beautiful coastline, with around 250 miles of dunes and cliffs, medieval harbors and oak-forested creeks. It's an ideal place for beach enthusiasts and surfers alike, boasting some of the finest beaches in Britain including Porthcurno and Perranporth.
The maritime heritage of Cornwall is deeply embedded in its culture. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall in Falmouth offers intriguing insights into the county's seafaring history. This museum also has a satellite site in Truro, the capital of Cornwall. For marine life enthusiasts, the Blue Reef Aquarium in Newquay houses both local and exotic species.
For those passionate about history, Cornwall's ancient sites are sure to captivate. Tintagel Castle is steeped in Arthurian legend as the alleged birthplace of King Arthur while the Lost Gardens of Heligan provide a peek into Victorian horticulture. Furthermore, Cornwall's rich mining history can be explored not only at Geevor Tin Mine but also at other locations such as King Edward Mine Museum and Levant Mine and Beam Engine.
Art aficionados will find St Ives appealing for its art scene with galleries like Tate St Ives exhibiting modern British artists. The Minack Theatre, an open-air theatre etched into a granite cliff overlooking the sea, provides a unique cultural experience.
Cornwall also offers exceptional culinary experiences. It's renowned for its pasties - traditional baked pastries filled with meat and vegetables - but Cornish cuisine extends beyond this iconic dish. Seafood here is remarkably fresh; Rick Stein’s seafood restaurant in Padstow comes highly recommended.
For nature lovers, Cornwall presents stunning landscapes to explore from Bodmin Moor to Land’s End. Wildlife spotting opportunities are plentiful too; you might spot seals at Godrevy Point or dolphins off the Lizard Peninsula.
In summary, Cornwall offers a variety of experiences that cater to all types of travelers. Its stunning natural beauty, combined with its rich history and culture, make it a destination that's truly worth visiting.
