Guide to Looe:

Looe is a beautiful fishing port situated on the south coast of Cornwall, England. It is located on the east bank of the River Looe and is about 12 miles south-west of the city of Plymouth.

The town lies within the picturesque, unspoiled Looe Valley, which is surrounded by steep wooded hills. The town is divided into two distinct parts: East Looe and West Looe. East Looe is the more commercial of the two, while West Looe is a charming, traffic-free medieval fishing village. The two parts are connected by a bridge across the River Looe.

Looe is one of Cornwall's most popular tourist destinations, offering a wide range of attractions. Visitors can explore the narrow, winding streets of the town, take a stroll along the pleasant harbour side, or enjoy the views across the estuary to the rolling hills beyond.

The town has two beaches, Hannafore Beach and Looe Beach. Hannafore is a sheltered beach with pebbles and sand, while Looe Beach is a large, sandy beach with plenty of rock pools.

Looe is also a great place for water sports. The town has a small marina, and visitors can hire boats, kayaks and paddle boards. Fishing trips can also be arranged.

The town is surrounded by beautiful countryside and is ideal for walking and cycling. The South West Coast Path passes through the area, and there are numerous scenic trails in the surrounding countryside.

Looe also has a thriving food and drink scene, with restaurants, pubs and cafes serving local specialties such as fresh fish and seafood. The town is also home to two breweries and several vineyards, so you can sample some of Cornwall’s finest ales and wines.

Looe is a great destination for a family holiday, offering a wide range of activities and attractions. With its picturesque harbour, lovely beaches and stunning countryside, it is the perfect place to escape and unwind.
