Falmouth, situated on the beautiful River Fal, and with one of the
finest natural harbours in the world, developed and prospered to
become the base for the famous Packet Service between the
seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. It has a rich maritime
history with many interesting buildings including Arwenack Manor,
home to the infamous Killigrew family, who were responsible for the
early growth of the town. With the arrival of the railway, the town
soon developed a strong commercial interest with the Falmouth
Docks, founded in 1859, closely followed by the growth of tourism
that is still important to the town today. With excellent yachting
facilities, safe bathing beaches and a wealth of attractions, the
town offers a rich experience for its many visitors.
