St Michael's MountCornwall's long history in mining tin and copper dates backs 1000s of years to the days when the Phoenicians sailed via their secret sea lanes to St Michael's Mount to trade wine and spices for the precious Cornish tin.



Wheal Coates Mine at St Agnes HeadEvidence of Cornwall's rich mining history
is all around, with romantic, disused, 19th
Century engine houses on every horizon,
and on every spectacular coastal path.

StonesCornwall is full of history,
tradition - and superstition!
- and robust celebrations continue to this day
- including Helston Flora,
Padstow Hobby Hoss, Trevithick Day in Camborne
(commemorating Cornishman Richard Trevithick's
invention of the world's very first steam
locomotive), Murdoch Day in Redruth, and
Mazey Day in Penzance - to name but a few.

PolperroCornwall's fishermen still seek their harvest from the sea, sailing from Cornwall's many ports and harbours, some modern with deep sea fleets, such as Newlyn, others still much as they were many hundreds of years ago, such as Polperro or tiny Portloe.







FoweyAlmost an island, Cornwall is 85% surrounded by water - and we are working (digging!) on the other 15%! It has over 200 miles of the most beautiful coastline in Britain - with the wild Atlantic to the west and the English Channel and lively old ports like Fowey to the south.
