FALLALMOUTH.--Visitors to this romantic resort are offered a wide field of
entertainment and moral uplift. The steamer excursions embrace trips up the
lovely river Fallal to Gongor, famous for the prehistoric remains of the
shrine of Saint Opodeldoc, and to beauty spots in the harbour like
Glumgallion, Trehenna and Pangofflin Creek. There are also excursions in
armed motor-char-a-bancs to Boscagel, Cadgerack and Flapperack. To-day
visitors can view the gardens at Poljerrick, where many super-tropical
plants, including man-eating cacti, are growing in the most unbridled
luxuriance. There is a fine sporting nine-hole golf-course on the shingle
strand at Grogwalloe, where the test of niblick play is more severe than on
any links save those of the Culbin Sands near Nairn. Among other attractive
features are the brilliant displays of aurora borealis over the Bay, which
have been arranged at considerable cost by the Corporation in conjunction
with the Meteorological Society.
BORECAMBE.--The demand for bathing-machines and tents continues to
increase, though the shopkeepers are complaining of a decreasing spending
power on the part of the visitors and a disinclination to pay more than a
shilling a head for shrimps.
