Q: What are the top tourist attractions in Falmouth?

Historic Falmouth : Wander Water Square and a grid of Georgian streets to see cut-stone houses, louvered windows, and the clock tower. Step into St. Peter’s Anglican Church to find cedar pews and a quiet yard of old tombs. Martha Brae River Rafting : Glide on a bamboo raft as your captain poles through gentle bends shaded by vines. Trail your fingers in clear water and listen for birds along the banks. Glistening Waters Luminous Lagoon : Join a small boat after dark to watch the bay glow blue with each splash. Dip a hand over the side to see ripples light up around you. Hampden Estate Rum Tour : Walk an 18th-century distillery to smell molasses fermenting in wooden vats and see pot stills at work. Finish with a guided tasting on the verandah. Good Hope Estate : Visit a former sugar plantation to tour the great house and hillside grounds. Add river tubing or ziplining on site for a bit of action.
