Britain's official guide to canals, rivers and lakes

Cornwall

Sunny Cornwall is awash with waterway secrets.

Rivers tumble from wild moorland down to the sea and historic canals carve their way through seaside towns, creating a quiet haven for canoeists and anglers. From the windswept tors of Bodmin Moor to the chocolate-box appeal of Fowey, England’s south-west is a land of contrasts – there’s sandy beaches, castles and clotted cream too!
