August

Think summer holidays, think August. It's the roasting summer sun, ice cream dribbles running down backs of hands and sand in unthinkable places. Enjoy the throng of many a thing to do in August.

Falmouth Week festival

Falmouth Week is a family friendly festival in Cornwall with a full schedule of activities and entertainment carefully organised for every day of the week. Take the little ones, take the older ones, take everyone or just take the two of you in August and indulge in the true spirit of the town.

Spring tide walk to St Helens Fort

A walk with a difference. This walk can only be attempted 4 times a year so plan your holiday for low tide and hope to strike lucky.
