Operated by Brit Movie Tours · Looe, Cornwall
Looe, a charming coastal town in Cornwall, England, strikes a balance between rugged natural beauty and compact historic streets. Situated on the south coast of Cornwall, this fishing town offers more than just seawater air and weathered harbor walls—it doubles as a vivid backdrop for the hit television series Beyond Paradise. Brit Movie Tours presents an intimate 1.5-hour private walking tour through Looe’s scenic harbor and narrow lanes, guiding visitors to the exact filming locations seen on screen.
The tour is crafted for fans and newcomers alike, revealing details of the show’s production while connecting those scenes to Looe’s layered maritime heritage. Walking along the quayside, the granite harbor walls and slate-roofed cottages create a quietly rugged setting where the town’s fishing past meets the present. This is Cornwall’s coastline in microcosm—steep hills, weathered cliffs, and salt-scented air. The tour’s pace lets you take in the fishing boats bobbing on the tide and the colorful bustle of the harbor market.
