Polperro - Porthpyra

Continue west along the coast to Polperro (Porthpyra) which is a village and fishing port situated on the River Pol. It four miles west of Looe and is a fishing harbour surrounded by old fishermen's houses. Tourism is now Polperro's main industry and the village can be reached by road and the train from Looe Railway Station. Visitors cannot take their cars into the village and there is a car park just north of the village with about a half mile walk to the harbour. Other forms of transport are made available to get to the harbour. The South West Coast Path (stretching from Dorset to Somerset) goes through the village from Talland Bay in the east and west towards Fowey, Llansallos Beach, Lantavit Bay and Lantic Bay. Within Polperro are a number of restaurants.
