Welcome Visitors
As you head into the sheltered waters of the inner harbour, Falmouth Haven lies to the South West.
Perfect for transatlantic sailing adventures
It is a perfect location for departing to or returning from transatlantic sailing adventures, as a cruising port en route to France, Ireland or the Isles of Scilly – not to mention simply cove-hopping along the scenic Cornish coastline to Fowey or the Helford. In short, our position is tailor-made for cruising sailors, as well as providing a safe port in almost all wind and weather.
Stormbound
If you are unlucky enough to be stormbound, there are few better places to be held captive than here. Falmouth Harbour is flanked by Events Square on one side – home to numerous bars and restaurants and a major supermarket, as well as the National Maritime Museum Cornwall – and the start of the bustling and winding main street on the other, with seemingly endless shops and art galleries, including a good selection of handy retailers for sailors.

- Small craft may wish to utilise our anchorage area, located between Custom House Quay and Falmouth Docks.
Accommodating Your Craft
We are able to accommodate any craft up to 16m in length on our visitors’ marina and ask that you are aware that during busy times rafting up is customary, so please find a berth and introduce yourself to your new neighbours. Each of the above also comes with access to our amenities, which combine convenience and hospitality with maritime excellence including; showers, Wi-Fi, a laundry room, our complimentary Falmouth Havencard and mail handling services.
For those of you trailering a boat to Cornwall, we also offer short-term boat park spaces in our boat park at Grove Place.
