Discovering Cornwall’s Hidden Gems
Top Reasons to Book a Private Charter
A Perfect Day on the Water
Exploring Cornwall by water offers an entirely new perspective of this stunning region, and at Port Pendennis Boat Charters, we’re dedicated to providing unforgettable boat trips that showcase the best of the coastline and rivers. Whether you're after a relaxing escape or celebrating a special occasion, our cruises offer the perfect way to enjoy Cornwall’s scenic beauty and rich maritime heritage. Here's what you can expect from a typical day on one of our boat charters.
A Warm Welcome and Smooth Departure
Your adventure begins at our convenient departure point at Port Pendennis Marina, where our friendly crew will be ready to greet you. Easily identifiable in their branded uniforms, they will ensure a smooth boarding process and answer any questions you may have. Our departure point is easy to access, and once you're aboard our fully heated boat, you'll be able to relax in comfort as we set sail.
Breathtaking Views of Cornwall’s Coastline
Once we’re out on the water, you’ll immediately notice the stunning views of Cornwall’s rivers and coastline. Depending on your chosen trip, you could be passing iconic landmarks such as Pendennis Castle, the Tudor fortress overlooking the Fal Estuary, or the charming St. Mawes Castle on the opposite shore. As we glide through the waters, you’ll see tranquil coves, historic sites, and unspoiled landscapes that make Cornwall such a magical destination.
Delightful Refreshments on Board
During our Morning and Afternoon Tea Cruises, you’ll be treated to a glass of Prosecco as you board, served as you take in the views. Our afternoon tea includes: sandwiches, savoury bites, sweet treats, scones, cream, and jam. You get another glass of prosecco and either tea or coffee. For evening trips, such as our Evening Drinks Cruise, you’ll be able to enjoy local gins, rums, and other refreshments while watching the sunset over the water—a perfect way to unwind at the end of the day.
Spotting Wildlife Along the Way
Cornwall’s waterways are teeming with wildlife, and no boat trip would be complete without keeping an eye out for some of the region’s most iconic marine creatures. Dolphins often swim alongside the boat, while grey seals can be seen lounging on rocks or swimming through the calm waters. Birdwatchers will delight in spotting seabirds like gannets and cormorants, while the lucky few may even catch a glimpse of basking sharks during the right season.
Personalised and Tailored Experiences
At Port Pendennis Boat Charters, we pride ourselves on offering tailored experiences to suit your needs. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, hosting a corporate event, or simply looking for a private day out on the water, our private charters are fully customizable. You can bring your own food, choose bespoke packages, or let our expert team craft the perfect itinerary for your group. No matter the occasion, we aim to provide a personalised and unforgettable journey.
Comfort in All Weather Conditions
One of the great things about our boat trips is that they’re designed to be enjoyed in all weather conditions. Our boat is fully heated, with spacious indoor seating to ensure comfort, even if the weather isn’t at its finest. Large windows allow you to take in the views, whether it’s a sunny day or a cool, rainy one, so you won’t miss out on the scenic beauty that surrounds you.
