What Wikivoyage says about moving around

- Get around Driving isn't recommended, especially for those who get scared driving through very narrow streets, and there is little parking available in the town itself, so parking either in the "Central Carpark" at the top of the hill (the main road into Fowey now takes you straight to it) or driving in the back way and parking at "Caffa Mill Carpark" (next to the Bodinnick Ferry) is generally advised and both of these are serviced by the town bus service.
- Go next During the summer months there's a regular passenger ferry between Mevagissey and Fowey, which is a nice way to spend 30 minutes on a sunny day.
- Go next Both ends of the walk are linked to Fowey by ferry, and the walk gives wonderful views of Fowey, the river and its tributaries.
