A phone is no use on a cliff path with no signal and eight per cent battery, which is the argument for paper.
Walking trails
The Cockle Trail is the one to pick up: a marked, self-guided route through the Old Town linking the Quay, the Guildhall and Scaplen's Court, with the trading history attached to each stop.
Visitor guides
Printed guides covering things to do, accommodation and what's on are distributed through tourist information and many places to stay.
Harbour and beach information
Tide tables, beach safety information and harbour navigation material are available locally. See beach safety and the harbour guide.
