European Cruise Ports You’ve Probably Never Heard Of
24. Polperro, England: Cornwall’s Most Charming Fishing Village
Cornwall is full of quaint harbor towns, but Polperro might be the most picture-perfect of them all. With whitewashed cottages, a tiny fishing port, and winding lanes that feel untouched by time, Polperro offers a glimpse into old-world England. While Looe and St. Ives draw bigger crowds, Polperro remains peaceful and charming, with art galleries, waterfront pubs, and coastal hiking trails leading to breathtaking cliffs. Don’t miss the Smugglers Museum, which tells tales of Cornwall’s pirate past. If your cruise stops near Plymouth or Falmouth, this hidden gem is well worth a visit.
