Falmouth is a port town on the south coast of Cornwall, England, at the mouth of the Carrick Roads, a deep natural harbour that made it a packet-ship station in the 18th century. Climb to Pendennis Castle, Henry VIII's fortress above the estuary, visit the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, take the ferry to St Mawes Castle, and see the subtropical gardens of Trebah and Trelissick.
