St Mawes
Took the ferry to St Mawes. The weather was kind to us but the journey was a tad windy at times.
We were fortunate to get generally much better weather than had been forecast. Rain didn’t stop play but not loads of full sun about. For example last year in was very hot allowing sea swimmers at St Mawes whilst this year they only popped in briefly. Alan Tradgardland
I went to the castle last summer and thoroughly enjoyed it. This year I went up the hill in the town to see the churches, holy well , views and general ambiance. Met the others at “The Rising Sun” for a swift half prior to getting the boat back. Alan Tradgardland
Is is a lovely village. The boat ride from Falmouth gives you the illusion of almost travelling to another island some distance away. Alan Tradgardland
Great to see that you're enjoying some decent weather down there.

I remember an idyllic day in St Mawes many years ago, swimming near the marina.
ReplyDeleteDid you get to the castle?
