Family-Friendly Activities In Falmouth

With the school holidays fast approaching we’ve hand-picked our favourite family-friendly activities to do in Falmouth come rain or shine. Sure to keep your little ones entertained all summer long!

Take a trip back in time

Take your little ones back in time with a trip to Pendennis Castle. This historical castle is based at the top of Falmouth and not only boasts some impressive views of the town’s coastline, but the mighty fortress built by Henry VIII is the perfect place to explore and experience the sights and sounds of battle.

Discover the wonders of the ocean

Discover the wonders of the ocean with a trip to Falmouth’s National Maritime Museum. Your little ones will love exploring their new exhibition ‘Surf!’ which celebrates a century of surfing in Cornwall. They’ll be sure to chat about nothing other than this exciting and interactive exhibition all the way home.

Spend a day at the seaside

When the forecast is predicting nothing but blue skies and sunshine, a trip to the beach is a must. Whether you choose to head to Gylly, Swanpool or Castle beach, there’s lots going on to entertain your little ones for an exciting day by Falmouth’s coastline. These spots also offer up some delicious ice cream treats.

Watch the latest summer blockbusters

When the weather is misbehaving, nothing beats settling down in front of the big screen to watch the latest family-friendly summer flick. Head down to the Phoenix cinema at the top of the moor, where you’ll find an award-winning and independently operated cinema that houses six screens.

Enjoy a spot of crabbing 

A trip to The Greenbank isn’t complete without an afternoon of crabbing on our quay. If you’re staying with us this summer, we’ll provide the crabbing equipment. All your little ones need to do is get their A-game on for some family-friendly competition. If you’re new to crabbing, check out a handy guide below.

Go on a sea safari adventure

Head out from the Prince of Wales pier for an exciting day of coastal exploring with Orca Sea Safaris. Children and adults alike will love spending time sailing around Falmouth’s beautiful coastline on Orca’s fast motorboat. Falmouth’s coastal waters offer the perfect setting to spot pods of dolphins, groups of seals, basking sharks and whales.
