Local story
Fishing harbour
Looe is a twin-harbour fishing town on Cornwall’s south east coast: East and West Looe, beaches nearby, and Polperro along the coast.
Working harbours, steep streets and nearby coastal villages define Looe for visitors and locals.
Streets are steep and parking is limited in peak season, so arrive early or use outskirts parking and walk in.
Start with the harbour bridge, then a beach or coastal village.
Verified first party walks and beach maps only. More local routes added when ready.
Around Looe, useful local places include Polperro, Pelynt, Duloe, Lanreath and Morval. Open Discover & connect for the parish list, or use the interactive map to see how they sit together.
Looe also works as a base for days in Fowey, Liskeard and Torpoint. Each has its own town page if you want to continue from here.
