If you are hoping to discover a quiet part of Cornwall, away from the tourist trail, Mylor Creek and a walk out to Carrick Roads fits the bill perfectly. The tidal water is generally calm and you will find a sense of peace hiking here.

The view opens up to Carrick Roads, the name given to the River Fal Estuary. On the east side you can see Messack Point which was used as a launch point for troops and equipment traveling to occupied France for D Day.

A thatched pub with outdoor seating all along the floating pontoon. The food is highly recommended and people even arrive by boat. A great place to watch the world go by.

Taking the Flushing Ferry from Falmouth to Flushing is a great way to link up to Trefusis and Penarrow Points without having to run all the way round the roads. The ferry runs year round and takes just 10 minutes. It makes a novel way to catch your breath on a run. For further information including ferry times and prices check their website. https://www.falriver.co.uk/ferries/flushing-ferry

As Trefusis Road rounds the bend in the coastline there are fantastic views across to Falmouth and east to Carrick Roads and St Mawes beyond. New Quay House stands proudly on the riverbank. Now a holiday cottage, this grade II listed building was built in 1703 as the home for a Merchant Ship Captain.
