 Trip Advisor Reviews

  • “We went on the Isla Bea boat trip on Thursday 28th July 2016. The skipper said the weather was a bit rough for going to Seal Island so took us round the lighthouse and we saw some seals. He got the boat really close to the rocks and told us lots of information about the seals and sea birds. Although the weather wasn't great we had an excellent trip and would certainly recommend.”

  • “We had a lovely trip to Seal Island which indeed delivered with a group of about 15 seals enjoying the sun and a pleasant trip along the coast. Very friendly and knowledgeable skipper. A real highlight of our visit to Cornwall.”

  • “Excellent value for money (for the three of us - 2 x adults and 1 x 7 year old and we paid £32.00) and really enjoyable. We loved it. A great trip and highly recommended if you've not done it before. Thanks to all involved.”
