Carrick is a local government district in Cornwall, United Kingdom. Its council is based in Truro. Other places include Falmouth and Penryn.

The district was created on April 1, 1974 by the merger of the city of Truro, the boroughs of Falmouth and Penryn, and Truro Rural District. It is named after the Carrick Roads, an inlet near Falmouth that the rivers Percuil, Penryn and Fal drain into.
