Things to do

 

Looe is the home of the National Shark Fishing Association but if this sounds too adventurous you can take a boat for local fishing or a trip around Looe Island.

Looe Golf Club welcomes visitors all year and the spectacular cliff top courses at Whitsand and Carlyon Bay will be a challenge for all golfers. The Jack Nicklaus designed St Mellion is also a short journey away.

Walkers and bird watchers will enjoy the South Cornwall Coast path and the world-renowned Lost Gardens of Heligan and Eden project are easily accessible.

The whole of South Cornwall is an area of outstanding natural beauty and provides a wealth of activities.
