Falmouth Classics Regatta
Event Navigation
Falmouth Classics is a three day rally of classic sailing craft and other traditional vessels, including pilot gigs and motor boats.
Set in the finest sailing waters in the South of England it is three days of rallying, and racing with the added bonus of free access to the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival, which takes place in the town at the same time. For participants it is a great three day get together, and an opportunity to meet old friends, make new ones and view each other’s boats. Whilst for spectators, it’s a magnificent opportunity to view these classic vessels against the beautiful backdrop of the Carrick Roads and Falmouth Harbour.
