Pictures : Harbours and Fishing Villages of Cornwall

Fishing like mining in days gone by was the life blood of the County. Small fishing coves such as Penberth, near Lands End remain as they must have looked 50 years ago. Others, like the town of Boscastle on the North Coast or Newquay are now more dependent upon tourism but still retain a harbour full of character.
