Falmouth itinerary

1 day in Falmouth

One day in Falmouth is enough for its centre and one real meal — here's how to spend it, plus what's genuinely on while you're there.

Your one day in Falmouth

With a single day, stay close to Falmouth's walkable centre: its best-known sights, a market or waterfront stretch, and one proper sit-down meal rather than rushing between many stops.

Check what's on below before you go — a live event on your day is the easiest way to fill an evening without extra planning.
