General
Charlestown Harbour, (situated on the outskirts of St. Austell in Cornwall) is an original Grade II listed, Georgian Harbour. It is owned by a boat yard called Square Sails, who keep their replica ships there, which they use for films etc. The whole setup is fairly commercial, they even own the beaches there, which they gracefully let the public use. It is very beautifull though and is worth a visit.
Anchorages
You can anchor just outside the harbour, fine sand
