“On The Water – Looe & Polperro” is back for the 2nd year!
Celebrating & promoting the fantastic range of activities, both on & in the water, around our coastline, harbours & river; kindly sponsored by Black Dog Marine.
There can be few places in the UK that offer such a great variety of water sports, boat & fishing trips as the SE Cornwall Coast.. and new for 2025, we have a nice dive centre too.
From a lazy trip up the Looe River, to full throttle to the Eddystone Lighthouse, there’s a boat trip just for you; for those who love fishing – whether it’s a short mackerel fishing trip with the family, to a full-days’ reef of shark fishing we’ve got that covered too….and from kayaking to paddle boarding; you can make a splash on a range of water sports.
So whether you’ve always said you’d love to visit Looe Island, like to gaze under the waters from a Glass Bottom Boat, to trying SCUBA diving for the first time…. On The Water – Looe & Polperro has something for everyone.
