Fowey is renowned for its annual Regatta and the busy port has two sailing clubs with wide spread amenities for leisure and sailing craft alike. Moorings can be applied for from the Harbourmaster in the deep natural port which sees a large amount of marine activity both commercial and leisure. The town quay overlooks the Fowey River and its constant boating activity with views to the village of Polruan on the opposite side. Polruan can be accessed either by the car ferry at Bodinnick or the passenger ferry which leaves from the town quay. On both sides of the estuary are some fantastic and dramatic coastal walks, much of the land being under the stewardship of the National Trust. In recent years Fowey has attracted a number of upmarket retailers which mix with local boutique shops, bakers, sailing shops and the many restaurants and pubs that Fowey is famous for. The town can also boast its own hospital, primary and secondary schools and a sports centre. The two sailing clubs organise the yearly Fowey Regatta Week with yachts and dinghies racing both in the harbour and in St Austell Bay, culminating with the spectacle of the Falmouth Working Boat Harbour Race, the Red Arrows and an excellent fireworks display. During the week there are also many land based activities for children and adults. Fowey also hosts the Daphne Du Maurier Festival and the nearby Boconnoc Estate is the setting for a grand flower show during the spring.
