Sail into places like Dartmouth, the entrance to which is guarded by a castle and the pretty town is overlooked by the Britannia Royal Naval College. After a night in Dartmouth and a good look around you might head off for Salcombe which is a short sail across Start Bay. Salcombe is another delightful seaside town with lots of character and surrounded by rolling hills and fields, a character of the West Country.

West of Salcombe is the bustling naval port of Plymouth. You may pull into Plymouth before heading on to Fowey. Set in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty this vibrant town is stepped in maritime history. There are mediaeval buildings standing next to Georgian buildings.

Beyond Fowey is Falmouth. As you enter the Fal Estuary there is a castle to the left on Pendennis Point and a castle to the right in St Mawes. There are creeks and villages dotted here and there, lots of other sailing boats, galleries, and the National Maritime Museum.

A little further west of Falmouth is the sleepy Helford River. The Helford River is surrounded by ancient oak forests and hidden creeks. It is beautiful and unspoilt.

From Falmouth we sometimes sail out to the beautiful Isles of Scilly. Have a look here for more information and to see what Isles of Scilly voyage dates are available.

The Yacht will for these trips will likely be over 40ft and have a cabin configuration that allows for everyone to have their own space. If you come with a partner then you would share a cabin.

The boat will have hot water and heating. It may not have a shower but most nights you will be able to use the showers ashore in a marina or local yacht club.

The price includes all food on board apart from 1 evening meal if on a 5 or 6 day trip and 2 evening meals if on a 7 day trip as we think you might like to sample the local cuisine.

We provide food that is healthy and nutritious, including salads, vegetables, white and wholemeal bread, chicken, lean minced beef, salmon, muesli and cereal. In fact, just the kind of food that you might buy yourself. For snacks there is plenty of fruit, but also a supply of chocolate and biscuits.

If you have any special dietary requirements, be it vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten free, or allergies, we can normally accommodate these. Just let us know when you fill out your booking form.

Also included is oilskins if needed fuel, gas, all safety equipment, instructor and accommodation on board.

The only additional costs are mooring fees. It depends on where you end up at night. Anchorages are free, buoys are usually very cheap and marinas cost. If you budgeted on between £50/£80 for the trip you should be fine.

We are fully insured but we would strongly advise that you get your own travel insurance from a company such as TopSail Insurance that specialise in maritime travel insurance.
