The small creekside hamlet of Port Navas sits on the banks of the Helford River on the Roseland Peninsula in Cornwall, England. Its tidal creek, historic quay and tight cluster of cottages and boat sheds make it a picture‑postcard example of Cornwall’s quieter estuarine communities; mudflats, saltmarsh and sheltered waters attract small yachts, kayakers and birdwatchers throughout the year.
Historically the creek supported local fishing and small‑scale boatbuilding and the quay remains a focal point for the village. Today Port Navas has a strong local identity with an emphasis on conservation and sensitive tourism, drawing walkers, artists and people looking for a peaceful riverside escape rather than busy resort amenities.
