Mevagissey to Fowey Ferry
About
The Mevagissey to Fowey Ferry is a historic, scenic link across St. George’s Channel that connects the charming Cornish fishing port of Mevagissey with the coastal town of Fowey. Operated during the summer months, the ferry offers a short 10‑minute crossing that lets visitors experience the turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs and the historic harbour of Mevagissey. Many tourists enjoy the quick excursion as part of a day in the Cornwall coast, often combining it with walks along the harbour, visits to local cafés, and the nearby coastal walk. The ferry operates on a regular schedule, generally every 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the season, and is free to the public during its operating season.
