The tradition of boat building dates back to 1745. From the harbor you can take part in fishing trips or take a ferry to the nearby port of Fowey. But also the fishing village of Mevagissey offers a variety of activities during your vacation in a vacation apartment. In the narrow streets of the old town you will find many souvenir stores, craft stores, galleries, cafes and pubs. Of course, there are countless fish & chip stores! Many of them were once the homes of smugglers. At the Mevagissey Museum, you'll get even more insight into the town's former daily life. There you can view historic photographs from the 19th and 20th centuries, as well as various household, agricultural, fishing and military exhibits. There is also an excellent folk museum and an aquarium in the old lifeboat house that displays locally caught fish. At The World of Model Railways exhibition, you also have a unique opportunity to see for yourself the impressive collection, which includes more than 2,000 exhibits. Near Mevagissey, you can also visit The Lost Gardens of Heligan, one of the most famous botanical gardens in England.
