Carrick Roads is the estuary of the River Fal on the south coast of Cornwall in England. It joins the English Channel at its southern end near Falmouth.
It is a large flooded valley, or ria, created after the ice age by the melt waters that caused a dramatic rise in sea level, resulting in a large natural harbour which is navigable from Falmouth to Truro. The Carrick Roads have large tidal flows; the water starts to recede six hours and five minutes before high water at Dover. Tidal speeds can reach three knots in the upper parts of the basin and one and a half to two in the lower stretches. The journey from Truro to Falmouth is a Grade A route for kayakers.
