Places to Go
Penzance has many things to see and do, from its beautiful sub-tropical gardens to its busy harbour and picturesque backstreets. |
 |
Penzance is the only town in Cornwall with a seafront promenade which runs from the harbour towards Newlyn, a mile or so to the west. |
 |
Of course, Cornwall has some of the finest beaches in the country - try the north coast for the best surf and the south coast for the more sheltered beaches. |
 |
Minack is an open air theatre perched on the edge of the cliffs at Porthcurno. Shows run throughout the spring and summer - Just bring your own picnic...and don't forget your cushions! |
 |
For years, the quality of the light and the ruggedness of the landscape has drawn artists to Cornwall. St Ives Tate Gallery is the perfect place to view some of the magnificent local art. |
 |
The Isles of Scilly are just a short journey by Boat, Plane or Helicopter. This small group of Islands lie about 28 miles off Land's End and are renowned for their beauty and peaceful atmosphere. |
 |
Great days out for families include the Flambards Experience, with its white-knuckle rides, reptile and insect shows and the Victorian Village; see the Giants at Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station; visit the Eden Project and see Dr Who at Lands End.
