Plymouth's Sutton Harbour Marina is home to around 420 boats of different shapes and sizes. The Marina is one of the UK's best sailing destinations. It is also a pleasant place to stroll around and enjoy one of the restaurants, cafes, and bars. If you visit in July, you might be lucky enough to see the Sutton Harbour Classic Boat Rally.

Rosie's Rascals Café

Highlight • Rest Area

The coolest bike cafe in Plymouth: serving breakfast, lunch, origin coffee, nice cakes, and ride snacks.

The cafe is adorned with bicycles of many disciplines including some beautiful classic 90s mountain bikes.

With plenty of riders milling around at the weekend you can tell this is destination, start, and the mid point of many a social/cafe ride.

If you've ridden to the cafe naked (again?! what's wrong with you?) fear not as they sell plenty of clothes and riding kit at the back, as well as tubes and the usual repair stuff that can save a ride. Check it out!

Tinside Lido

Highlight • Rest Area

From this spot, Francis Drake (1540-1596) is said to have seen the invincible Spanish Armada coming in 1588, but nevertheless decided to finish his ball game before going into battle. It is more likely that he has been waiting for the tide to turn. What is certain is that this place offers an ideal view of the shipping traffic in the Sound, the natural harbor at the mouth of the Tamar and the Plym
