South West Coast Path | SWCP | Tag 11 | Von Falmouth nach Portscatho

Nach einem Ruhetag im Hafenstädtchen Falmouth fahre ich am Morgen mit der Fähre nach St Mawes. Mit einer kleinen Fähre geht es noch ein Stück weiter nach Place. Über recht einfache aber dafür umso schönere Wege und an tollen Stränden vorbei geht es nach Portscatho. Ich fahre mit dem Bus zurück nach St Mawes und genieße den Abend am Hafen.
