Looking for a dog friendly boat trip in St Ives? Step aboard Four Sisters, the largest passenger vessel in St Ives, and enjoy a relaxed wildlife cruise with the whole family — including your four-legged friend.
Our boat trips leave from St Ives Harbour and travel around the beautiful Cornish coast towards Seal Island, Godrevy Lighthouse and St Ives Bay, depending on the route, weather and sea conditions.
With a spacious deck, covered seating and a calm, traditional cruising style, Four Sisters is a great choice for families, groups and dog owners who want a comfortable way to enjoy the coast together.
Dogs are welcome aboard our wildlife trips from St Ives Harbour. Advance booking is recommended, especially during busy holiday periods.
Your dog does not need to miss out on your St Ives adventure. Well-behaved dogs are welcome aboard Four Sisters, so you can enjoy a memorable boat trip without leaving them behind.
Our wildlife trips are a brilliant way to experience the coast, spot local wildlife and enjoy beautiful views of St Ives from the water — all while keeping the family together.
Four Sisters is the largest passenger vessel in St Ives, giving passengers more space to settle in and enjoy the trip. This is especially helpful if you are bringing a dog, travelling with children, or prefer a more relaxed cruising experience.
The spacious deck, covered seating and steady cruising style make Four Sisters a comfortable choice for dog owners who want a relaxed boat trip rather than a high-speed sea safari.
Our dog friendly wildlife trips give you the chance to see some of the most beautiful parts of the St Ives coastline from the water.
Depending on the route and sea conditions, you may see Seal Island, grey seals, Godrevy Lighthouse, seabirds and beautiful views across St Ives Bay. Occasionally, passengers may also spot dolphins or other marine life.
Wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, but the journey itself offers fantastic coastal views and a peaceful way to experience St Ives from the sea.
To help everyone enjoy the trip, we recommend keeping your dog on a lead while boarding and on board. Please bring water for your dog, especially on warmer days, and a small towel if your dog has been on the beach before the trip.
If your dog is nervous, very excitable, or unsure around boats, please message us before booking and we can advise whether the trip is likely to be suitable.
Many visitors come to St Ives with children, grandparents, friends and dogs — so our trips are designed to feel welcoming and relaxed.
Four Sisters offers a comfortable boat trip experience with plenty of space, local skipper knowledge and beautiful views across the bay. It is ideal for families who want a safe, enjoyable and memorable way to see the Cornish coast together.
Dogs are part of the family too, and we are pleased to welcome them aboard.
Boat trips from St Ives are always weather and sea-condition dependent. The skipper makes the final decision based on safety, comfort and local conditions on the day.
If the weather changes, we will always aim to keep customers updated and advise on the best options. For the latest sailing advice, please book online or message us on WhatsApp before travelling to the harbour.
All trips are weather and sea-condition dependent. If conditions are not suitable, the skipper may cancel or rearrange the trip for safety and comfort.
