Map
Mevagissey is one of several beautiful little fishing villages along the coast of southeast Cornwall. The harbour has always served as the focus of village life. The present inner harbour was built in 1774, and the outer harbour in 1888 although it was severely damaged by a storm in 1891 and was rebuilt a few years later. The battle with the sea continues on behalf of the modern fishing and tourist industries, which make the harbour a hive of activity in the summer months. In 2006 the aquarium was re-opened in the old lifeboat house.
