Find peace and quiet just across the water. A ferry ride to Mount Batten and a stroll along the historical sea front

Step 1: Welcome to the gorgeous Plymouth waterfront. Along the way on this walk, we’ll discover some neat local history.

Step 2: Let’s begin at the Mayflower steps (PL1 2LR). This monument was built in the 1930s as a memorial to the passengers.

Step 3: No one knows where the passengers actually boarded the Mayflower, but it was probably in the mouth of the Plym.

Step 4: This route follows the signposted Mayflower Trail. You’ll find these information boards along way. Feel free to take your time reading them.

Step 5: Throughout the walk, these metal inlays in the pavement will help guide you.

Step 6: Let’s head out. You’re heading to the right, on the walkway along the quays. You’ll pass some public toilets on your left.
