If you're looking for something a bit different to traditional Cornish food, Amanzi offers cuisine from Africa. We've never had a bad time there and the ostrich kebab is very tasty!

Excellent selection of beers, ales and ciders on Custom House Quay. They don't serve food, but they do allow you to take food into the pub to eat, so if you fancied having fish and chips, takeaway pizza, an Indian or Chinese in the pub, you're free to do so!

Michael Caines' award-winning restaurant overlooks Maenporth Beach and is guaranteed to offer you a fine dining experience. It probably isn't suitable for children, particularly young ones though.

Beaches
This is the most popular of Falmouth's beaches and the closest to town. There is SUP/kayak hire, a cafe and it is lifeguarded by the RNLI in the summer months. Gylly Beach Cafe is a good place to wind away the evening looking out over the water. Public toilets are accessible too.

This is a rock-pooler's dream! If you have children, then it is a great place to visit when the tide is out and the rocks are exposed. You will find plenty of animals in the vast number of pools. Please remember to return creatures to the spot you found them if you take them out the water.

This is the smallest of the beaches in Falmouth, but it offers a great place to launch kayaks and SUPs from. There is cafe, SUP/kayak hire and it is within easy reach of Gyllyngvase Beach and the South West Coast Path walk towards Maenporth. Public toilets are accessible too.

For us, this is the best beach to visit for a whole day because when the tide is in, the water is sheltered (normally!) and if the tide is out, the beach offers a huge amount of space to do whatever you enjoy doing on a day out at the beach. There are rock pools to explore and a river to splash about it. Get there early, because once the car park is full there is nowhere else to park. There is a cafe and toilets.

Great place to explore the maritime history of not only Falmouth, but the rest of Cornwall and beyond. Travel up to the lookout for views over Falmouth town, Falmouth docks and the Roseland, or travel down into the depths to find out about Falmouth's diving history.

National Trust - Trelissick Garden
Glendurgan Garden
Perfectly picturesque gardens that wind down to their own private beach. The Roskilly's ice cream and hot drink on the beach are worth the walk. After walking back through the gardens, eat on the cafe - the fod is fantastic! Would highly recommend a visit to Trebah. In our opinion, it is the best garden to visit in the area and we have an annual family pass.

A great place to look across over the coastline of Falmouth, including Gyllynvase Beach, and inland towards Carrick Roads. There is often a couple of ice cream vans to get a treat from too!

This is a wonderful place to begin a coastal walk towards Porth Saxon, Grebe, Durgan and ending up at The Ferryboat Inn. Although parking is limited, if you get here early enough and pay in the 'honesty' box you're bound to have a great day out. The church grounds are beautiful and have some rather famous and old (one pirate gravestone at the entrance is particularly ancient) gravestones, the walk through the fields and on the coast path is stunning as you pass the mouth of the Helford River and you can soak in three contrasting beaches before a lunchtime pint at The Ferryboat Inn. What is there not to enjoy!

This corner of Penryn hosts an abundance of plants and shrubs from around the world. A great place for couples to wander or families to explore, it really is for everyone. The café sells homemade cakes and a traditional cream tea. A must visit when in Falmouth.
