Mevagissey is popular with tourists. The busy harbour consists of an inner and outer harbour, a safe haven for pleasure craft and a fleet of small fishing boats. The village centre has a maze of narrow streets with shops,  seafood restaurants, cafes and pubs and many buildings around the harbour that are related to the fishing industry and the sea. Mevagissey Harbour at Low Tide is for sale. Signed by the artist on the front and back

The foreground is dominated by an array of colourful fishing boats, their hulls resting on the exposed seabed. The boats, painted in bright hues of blue, red, and white, are intricately detailed with ropes, nets, and various fishing gear. In the middle ground, the calm harbour waters reflect the vibrant colours of the boats and the surrounding buildings, adding depth and vibrancy to the scene. The background features a hillside densely packed with quaint houses, their facades painted in a mix of pastel shades and earthy tones. These houses, with their white-framed windows and sloping roofs, cascade down towards the harbour. The stone harbour walls and piers, along with the bustling quay, suggestive of the lively, active fishing community.
