Mounts Bay is one of Cornwall’s most spectacular stretches of water — and from the sea, it’s a completely different world. Departing from Penzance Harbour, Coast Boat Trips takes you into the heart of the bay, where wildlife, history and breathtaking scenery come together in one unforgettable experience.
On board you’ll be guided by one of our expert wildlife guides, a qualified wildlife and ecology specialist — they don’t just point things out, they bring the coastline to life, explaining the wildlife, the ecosystems, the geology and the history of everything you pass.
Our route is flexible, adapted daily to the weather and wildlife conditions to give you the very best experience on the day. You might head towards the remarkable Minack Theatre, perched dramatically above the cliffs, or out across the bay towards the enchanting St Michael’s Mount. Either way, keep your eyes peeled — dolphins, seals and a wealth of seabirds all call these waters home.
This is a trip that works beautifully for everyone — families with young children, those looking for a gentler introduction to the Cornish coastline, or anyone who simply wants to experience the magic of Mounts Bay from the water.
