The last of our Mevagissey Feast Week photos.

After a lovely evening watching the floral dance and soaking up the atmosphere of this vibrant fishing village we headed home.

🐟 Mevagissey Feast Week 🐟

What a Feast Week! Mevagissey never disappoints.

We popped down around 8pm in the evening before the Floral Dance. It was warm, the sea was sparkling and Mevagissey just glowed.

On Thursday evening during the Mevagissey Feast Week we were delighted to watch the traditional Floral Dance through the streets of Mevagissey.

Accompanied by the band the dancers danced through the streets and alongside the harbour! What a wonderful sight with everyone welcome to join in. 😁
