A full day gives you time to do it all, start the day with pastries and coffee as we head out. We are guided by the weather on the day, some popular routes include a trip Tulvern for a paddleboard lesson heading towards Malpas, lunch on the river and then an afternoon sailing towards the Manacles. A morning sailing past Swanpool and Maenporth aiming to go ashore for lunch in Helford is always popular, in the afternoon we can potter back across to St Mawes for a swim before returning to Mylor with a glass of bubbles.

I organised this as a birthday present for my husband, and it was an absolute hit with everyone! Harry was friendly and knowledgeable making the day extra enjoyable. He was particularly patient and engaging with our children, aged 7 and 11, who loved help steering the boat.
