Going on holiday to Cornwall is always a good idea and especially when the sun is shining. As we have been lucky with beautiful weather for nearly a month now, we thought we would give you some ideas on what activities you can do on the water with the family when holidaying in Cornwall.

If you are tempted to try surfing for the first time or even paddleboarding, St Ives School will provide all equipments and will assist you during the whole duration of the lesson to make sure everything goes well. If you are staying in one of our self-catering accomodation, make sure to mention the Sail Lofts as they kindly offer reduced rates to all our guests.

Boats rides

As you walk along the harbour front, you will come across many activities available on the water for you to make the most of the sea surrounding us. We recommend you to try the boat ride with Dolly P as they are the oldest boat company in St Ives and will show you the Cornish coastline like you've never seen it before.
