Newlyn is a busy fishing port and is the base for a large fishing fleet. The fish market is situated on the quay and is a bustling place in the mornings when the fish are landed and then auctioned off.
Newlyn has two quays - the old quay and the newer quay where most of the fishing boats are moored.
In addition to fishing, Newlyn has several art galleries including the Newlyn Art Gallery.
