Fowey is a historic port town and civil parish situated on the south coast of Cornwall, at the mouth of the River Fowey. The town has a rich maritime heritage dating back to medieval times when it was an important harbor for trade and defense. The natural deep-water port continues to be active today, handling both commercial vessels and pleasure craft.

Fowey's cultural significance is particularly linked to its literary connections - it was home to famous author Daphne du Maurier for many years, and its picturesque setting has inspired numerous writers and artists. The town center features well-preserved historic architecture, including medieval and Georgian buildings, reflecting its prosperous maritime past.
