King Harry Ferry - Truro & Falmouth to St Mawes & The Roseland Peninsula
The crossing of the River Fal on The King Harry Ferry has been voted one of the ten most scenic ferry trips in the world by The Independent, alongside the Staten Island Ferry in New York and the Star Ferry in Hong Kong. The Feock terminal of the ferry is adjacent to the renowned Trelissick Gardens.
Established in 1888, it is an iconic part of Cornwall’s history. The King Harry Ferry connects St Mawes and the Roseland Peninsula with Truro and Falmouth by avoiding the alternative 27 mile route through Truro & Tresillian.
Each year the King Harry Ferry saves 5 million car miles, 1.7 million kg of CO2 and ¾ of a million litres of fuel. It carries 300,000 cars every single year.
A toll is charged for vehicular use of the ferry; a charitable donation is invited from pedestrians. Local people purchase concession tickets to keep the price low. If the ferry is not operating, the alternative is a 26-mile (42 km) detour via the city of Truro.
The King Harry Ferry is a vehicular chain ferry which crosses the Carrick Roads reach of the estuary of the River Fal in Cornwall, England, UK. The ferry is owned and operated by the King Harry Steam Ferry Company Ltd. The current ferry boat, named No. 7, was built in 2006 and can carry up to 34 cars.

A few aerial shots of Restronguet Creek, Cornwall, UK
Trying out some aerial photography near Mylor Bridge, Cornwall. The water is Restronguet Creek. Also shown is the wedding venue on Dale and Sons' farm which overlooks the water. Title is named as such due to Paddington Station in London now announcing travel to 'The Cornish Riviera' which just sounds quite amusing (and also explains the music)

Cornwall circular walk Mylor bridge, Pandora Inn and Restronguet Creek
A beautiful easy circular walk in Cornwall about 4 1/2 miles long. From Mylor Bridge you can stop at the wonderful Pandora Inn half way round.
Parking is free at the Mylor bridge carpark. From here cross the road and pass the post office, go to the creek and follow the footpath sign to Restronguet. You briefly pass through some houses before reaching the creekside. This path leads all the way to the Pandora Inn. After visiting the Pandora you can make the steep climb straight back to the road leading into Mylor Bridge or I would recommend carrying on down the creekside path to Harwyn where you need to make a sharp left turn and follow the path back to the road into Mylor.

Episode 4: Exploring Cornwall’s Historic Coastline
See Cornish rivers from a local boat owner’s perspective as John visits many of the easily explorable rivers from the Tamar in the east on the Devon border, to Europe’s largest natural harbour in Falmouth at the mouth of the Rivers Penryn and Fal.
In this episode John shows us sights such as the Cornish farmlands seen from the Lynher estuary, a tributary of the Tamar. He reveals the many attractions Falmouth offers and reasons to explore beyond the picturesque village of Fowey and up in to the River Fowey itself. So many of Cornwall’s rivers are wide enough and deep enough at high tide to be easily explored. The River Helford’s estuary is a yachtsman’s dream, whilst in the upper reaches of the River Fal large commercial ships can often be found laid up by their owners.
Our final episode will reveal John’s favourite, secret spots along the Cornish coast...don't miss it!
