As Cornwall has the longest coastline of any county in England it is no surprise that it is a county of excellent sailors.
Indeed Captain Bligh, of Bounty fame, was born at Tinten Manor just a couple of miles from Helsbury Park.
From dinghy to ocean going yacht, opportunities abound to try sailing in Cornwall, and be it all hands on deck or a G and T in the cabin a great day out
can be had by all. There are numerous centres for water sports: at Rock on the Camel estuary; Falmouth on the South Coast; or inland reservoirs and
lakes if you'd rather not have waves and the tide to deal with.
It is possible to hire boats with an experienced skipper and crew, or for competent sailors to take out alone. Sailing courses are also available for
anyone looking to take up the sport, or for those looking to develop their skills.
