Port Pendennis Marina
Visiting by boat
Port Pendennis sits in a sheltered corner of Falmouth Harbour, making it one of the south west's most protected marinas and a popular jumping-off point for Atlantic crossings or Mediterranean passages. You're right in the heart of Falmouth, so the town's restaurants, shops, and the excellent National Maritime Museum are all within easy walking distance. The harbour itself is one of the deepest natural harbours in the world, with plenty of deep-water access and a friendly, well-run setup that regulars keep coming back to.
