Boat Trips Out of Looe

Boat trips out of Looe (March – October)

20 mins from Liskeard by road (and easy to get to by public transport the bustling port of Looe offers dozens of boat trips and sightseeing excursions from the harbour walls. March through to October, you’ll find skippers drumming up trade for trips around Looe Island, sailing along the coast between the fishing ports, or going out on a glass-bottomed boat. A boat trip is great for the whole family and you get to see Cornwall from a different angle. The skippers are often great sources of local information, too, but don’t ask them where the best fishing spots are, because they’ll just smile and say something like: ’Where the biggest fish are…’
