It is surrounded by the rough beauty of Dartmoor, the wonderful countryside of the South Hams, and the bright landscape of the South Devon coast. Wander down to the Barbican quayside, where the city's maritime history begins, via the maze of tiny alleyways lined with shops, eateries, and art galleries. Take a stroll up to the Hoe for an unmatched view of one of the best natural harbours in the world and to see where Francis Drake was bowling as the Armada approached. Attend a performance at the Theatre Royal, take a tour of the Plymouth Gin distillery, or spend a few enlightening hours at the National Marine Aquarium. In addition, you may take boat tours around the Sound and Naval dockyards, enjoy water sports at the Mountbatten Centre, and shop at the city centre mall. In less than 45 minutes, you may go to the untamed tors of Dartmoor, the beach resorts of Torbay, a number of historic mansions and gardens, and the breathtaking coastline beauty of South Cornwall.
