Situated on Wharf Road, St Ives Harbour is a picturesque working port featuring a sandy beach, piers, and a bustling wharf lined with small shops, historic pubs, and eateries. Steeped in maritime history from its 18th-century pilchard fishing boom to the construction of Smeaton's Pier in 1770, the harbour empties out at low tide so visitors can walk right across the sand among resting boats.
