Helford Passage is a tiny village in Cornwall, which stands on the north bank of the Helford River opposite Helford, some five miles south-southwest of Falmouth. Its name marks its position as the destination of the Helford ferry.
A pedestrian ferry, from which the village takes its name and its origin, operates daily from Easter to October between Helford Passage and Helford.[1]
Helford Passage lies within the "Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty", though almost a third of Cornwall has such a designation.
The gardens at Trebah, the National Trust's Glendurgan Garden, are a short walk away.
