5 Jubilee Wharf and Exchequer (Penryn or Town) Quay Full of local independent businesses which celebrate sustainable living Combining the best of our maritime heritage with our arts community, Jubilee Wharf and Exchequer Quay overlooks the Penryn river all the way towards Falmouth. With wind turbines, cycle, car and boat parking, both quays encourage visitors to stay and explore.

There are surveying vessels, fishing boats, smart shiny yachts and several pretty house boats. You can pull up your own boat at Exchequer Quay, with more permanent berths available from www.portoftruro.co.uk Bird watching is possible from here. Keep an eye on the mud-flats, exposed at low tide where various species can be spotted. Don’t forget your binoculars!
