Padstow is built upon the hillside overlooking the Camel Estuary, it is fine example of a Cornish-fishing port. The town is largely unspoilt, with a beautiful harbour fringed with many intact medieval buildings. Slate roofed houses crowd narrow streets leading to the harbour on the western side of the Camel Estuary.

The Estuary is a haunt of sailors so in addition to fishing boats, yachts often moor in the Inner Harbour.

The Tudor mansion of Prideaux Place is just outside of town in a commanding position. There are good shopping facilities, a cinema, cafes and restaurants, including the famous Seafood Restaurant run by Rick Stein. There are many old and friendly public houses, most of them serving pub food and real ale. The town is home to some fine craft and gift shops, artists' studios, book shops, and many other local amenities.

On the 1st of May the town celebrates the coming of Spring with the "Obby Oss". Padstow is decorated with the first greenery of the year, bluebells and hazel twigs, and the "Oss" processes with dancers, singers, and musicians, celebrating Spring. The dance's origins are believed to be pagan and it is one of the oldest remaining customs in England.

There is plenty going on in all seasons with fine beaches and scenery for all to enjoy. St George's Well, Trevone Bay, Treyarnon, Harlyn and Constantine are a few of the spectacular beaches all with easy access. Wet suites and surf boards can be hired from several local shops, or in lay-bys in the summer.

The Camel Trail follows the former railway line along the estuary, via Wadebridge, to Bodmin and beyond. It is ideal for cyclists or on foot at a more leisurely pace! Cycles can be hired. The National Lobster Hatchery is located on the quay and nearby is Crealy Adventure Park.
