InfoPhotosVisited Planned

Looe is a small coastal town located in south-east Cornwall, England. It is divided into two parts by the River Looe, East Looe and West Looe, connected by a seven-arched bridge that dates back to the 19th century.

The town is known for its picturesque harbour, lined with colourful fishing boats, and its narrow streets with independent shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants. Looe is also a popular destination for beach holidays and water sports, with a long sandy beach in East Looe and rocky coves along the coastline.

Looe has a rich history dating back to the 12th century, and it was an important centre for the fishing industry in the past. Visitors can explore the town's heritage at the Old Guildhall Museum and Gaol, which houses a collection of artefacts and exhibits about Looe's maritime history and local life.

For those who enjoy walking, Looe offers several scenic routes, including the South West Coast Path, which passes through the town, and the Looe Valley Trail, a 7-mile route along the River Looe to the village of Pelynt.
