Not only does it provide an essential link between Fowey and Polruan for residents and visitors, but also access to local walks such as the Hall Walk either starting or finishing in Polruan, as well as linking the coast path that comes into Polruan from Polperro with the continuing path from Fowey. The service opera
tes everyday, except Christmas Day, and runs continually leaving each side approximately every 10 - 15 minutes during hours of service. Dogs, bicycles and pushchairs are all welcome but please be aware that the ferry is reached by steps at all landings. Where possible the ferry staff will do their best to assist with pushchairs. During the winter months (and summer evenings) the service runs from Polruan Quay to Town Quay in the centre of Fowey. In the summer months the ferry runs to Whitehouse slip during the day, Whitehouse is situated on the Esplanade and is less than a five minute walk from the main street in Fowey.
