From May to September, guests can explore the waters of Falmouth Bay aboard Pinuccia, the hotel's beautifully restored classic Italian yacht. Guided by an experienced skipper, sail through one of Britain's most picturesque sailing regions, including the Fal and Helford estuaries, with a picnic and bottle of wine for the journey. For an especially memorable experience, early morning sailings offer tranquil waters and spectacular Cornish light as the coastline slowly awakens.
