Kayak to a Hidden Cove: Private Guided Sea Kayaking from Falmouth

Paddle a sea kayak along the stunning Fal estuary and Roseland Peninsula coastline, guided by an expert local, discovering secret beaches and sea caves that are utterly inaccessible by land.

What to expect

Launch from the water's edge with a full safety briefing and top-quality kit, then paddle out into the brilliantly clear, jade-green waters of the Fal or the open Helford River. Your guide leads you into sea caves, past oyster beds, and around headlands where grey seals bask on rocky ledges. Land on a deserted cove for a rest and take in views that most visitors only dream of. No prior experience is needed — guides match the route to your group's ability.
