Marine

Cornwall's coastline is a major characteristic of the county. Cornwall has the longest and warmest coastline in the UK and it is often quoted as the main reason for people moving here. It is therefore not surprising that Cornwall's marine industry has historically been seen as essential to the economy and today remains full of opportunity. There are nearly 700 marine or related businesses in Cornwall, employing over 3,400 people all brought together under the Cornwall Marine Network www.cornwallmarine.net/.
