Restronguet Creek and Pandora Inn 2013-09-19 A walk from Mylor Bridge to Restronguet Creek to the Pandora Inn. The Pandora Inn had burnt down since the last time we were here but has been sympathetically restored. Back along Mylor Creek to the Mylor Bridge
Creeks and kingfishers 2015-09-19 First canoe trip of the 2015 summer holiday. From Mylor harbour, a little way up Restronguet creek up past the Pandora Inn, on to Looe Beach and then back via Mylor Creek. Had a kingfisher with us for quite a way up Mylor creek.
Carrick Roads and Restronguet Creek 2019-07-14 With the promised easterly being more like a southerly, there was a long enough fetch for some waves that weren't to Scooby's liking. So after lunch and some icecreams (which were to Scooby's liking) we diverted into Restronguet Creek for some quiet top-of-the-tide paddling past The Pandora and onto Point. Then back below the rather marvelous Tregunwith Farm campsite (£9 / night for 2 adults, 1 dog, 1 camper van, 1 car and a canoe) and back to Mylor Yacht Harbour.

Falmouth, Trelissick and Mylor 2024-05-24

The plan had been to "nip round the corner" (i.e. past The Lizard) and then spend a night at Newlyn before heading off across the Celtic Sea to Cork, Ireland.

However, after spending quite a while comparing several different forecasts from several different weather models, we reached the unwanted conclusion that we didn't have a good enough weather window to set off on the Saturday for the 30 hour(ish) passage.

So in very still weather we motored up The Carrick Roads for lunch at anchor in Channals Creek (i.e. under Trelissick House). Then down to Mylor Yacht Haven were Thalmia is moored up until we spot a decent weather window to allow the "Ireland Trip" to continue.

On the plus side, this gives time for a sail maker in Penryn to replace the damaged panel in Thalmia's spray hood.

Helford Kayaking 2023-09-10 A lovely paddle on the Helford. Via FranchMan's Creek then up to Tremayne Quay for lunch (and a VHF message relay for a broken down dory). Then back via Port Navas.
