Other popular tours include the cathedral city and major shopping centre of Truro, the ancient seaport of Falmouth, with its castle, National Maritime Museum and beaches, Tintagel, home of King Arthur and nearby Boscastle now most famous for its recent floods but still a charming harbour and village, the river port and sailing centre of Fowey, the picturesque fishing ports of Mevagissey, Polperro, Looe, Newlyn and Mousehole and The Lizard, the most southerly point in Britain and one of the most scenic areas of Cornwall with its unspoilt beauty, magnificent cliffs and coves.
