South-West England Cornwall - Falmouth and St. Ives. Where to visit, what to shoot?

[welly]

Hello!

I'm going down to Cornwall for 5 days from tomorrow and it's probably been about 20+ years since I set foot in the area. Certainly, I've never been to either St. Ives or Falmouth so this is all new to me.

Having been away from photography for quite a few years, I suspect it's going to take me a bit to get warmed up however, I'm hoping it's like riding a bike, but we'll see..

So wondered if anyone could give me any recommendations for anything worth taking a look at around Falmouth and St. Ives, which are the main towns I'll be staying in but also plans to visit Penzance, possibly Lands End (but maybe not for fear of being charged a fortune to look at a signpost) and would also welcome any other suggestions on what's worth visiting.

Cheers!

Eden Project on a moist day. Not too far away and worth the trip IMO. The seal sanctuary at Gweek if that's your bag. The Maritime Museum in Falmouth is supposed to be good and interesting.

tbh, you could pick almost any coastal village and there will be plenty of lovely homes, harbours, boats, flowers and scenes to shoot.
