The location

​

Halyard Sound (located at Maritime House) is in the prestigious and luxurious waterside development of Discovery Quay (also known as “Events Square”).  This maritime area is built on land reclaimed from the sea in the 1980s.  There, the water’s edge originally reached as far as the high street road and within 15 meters of the Killigrew Monument.

​

Events Square is one of Falmouth’s most important community spaces which hosts a wide variety of festivals and events such as the Oyster Festival; Falmouth Week; the Sea Shanty festival, and regular markets.  All this can be privately enjoyed from the balconies of Halyard Sound.

​

Also adjacent to Events Square is the slipway at Grove Place.  Here you can embark on all sorts of water activities such as dinghy sailing; sport rowing; kayaking, or even be retrieved by a friend with a boat.  

The waters in the area also offer some of the best scuba diving in the UK.  As for beaches and nature walks, as well as community garden and parks- Falmouth offers some of the best in Cornwall with the famous Gyllyngvase Beach only a walking distance away. Along with Gilligan Beach under a 15 minute stroll away.
