Overview
We take our guests on an unforgettable experience that showcases the best of Cornwall. Taking in the UK's most exposed and beautiful coast line, open seas and serene places of paradise. Giving our guests an experience that no one else can offer.
On our Land's End Trip, we depart from Penzance harbour and make our way down the coast, stopping to see all the lovely coves and historical spots along the way. After we round the historic Longship Lighthouse on the iconic Lands End tip, we then head out to an offshore shelf where the depths of the ocean meets the enchanted Cornish coast for an opportunity to spot dolphins and other wildlife. After this wide sweep of the bay we return past St Michael’s Mount and back to Penzance.
Our guides are experts and hold masters degrees in marine biology or zoology and are passionate about our coastal environment.

Our trips are put together for you to experience Cornwall for all it is, and from time to time that means it’s going to get wet. Check the weather and dress accordingly.
