The historic twin towns of East and West Looe provide all you could ask of a holiday in Cornwall. Safe beaches, quality accommodation, a wide choice of restaurants, excellent walking routes, fishing trips, diving, etc, etc.
During the day East Looe beach offers safe swimming, sun bathing or perfect sand for budding castle builders. Just beyond the main beach, and also at West Looe, the golden sand gives way to rocks and rock pools. Here a whole new world is awaiting those who like exploring, the individual pools changing with every tide. Bright red and green sea anemones wave their many arms in the current whilst tiny shrimps dart for cover under rocks at the slightest movement.
Looe really is a pretty, old-fashioned seaside town, with plenty of places to eat and many individual shops to browse. It is centred around a picturesque harbour, and everywhere is within an easy stroll.
The Looe river is navigable for quite a distance inland, creating quite a haven for both fishing boats and leisure craft, and making a very pleasant river-side walk.
