Porthleven Harbour
Head west on the A394 from Helston to Penzance and a left turn will bring
you to Porthleven the most southerly port in mainland Britain and an excellent base for exploring South West Cornwall. A harbour full of yachts and fishing
boats, narrow streets climbing the steep hillsides and spectacular views, Porthleven has long been that happy Cornish mix of fishing port and holiday
resort.
Much of Porthleven's daily routine is still played out in the harbour, with
houses and cottages cramming the hillsides for the best view. Boats still fish from here, the main catch being crab, lobster and crayfish. |
