We have boat sea safari trips out of Padstow or Rock going to explore some sea-life, the coastline rich in history and funny tales and coastal wildlife favourites, like the renowned seals, dolphins, puffins and much much more.
Try Something New as a Family
Learning and showing kids that everyone can be a beginner sometimes and get involved in giving something a go! You might surprise yourself at who turns out to be great at something new. Discovering new sides of yourself while doing something new and positive, leads to kids observing the parent’s willingness to try something new and learn and explore. As well as kids learning more about the natural environment and tides and a little of the ocean itself, especially from our instructors and skippers who hold a wealth of knowledge to pass on.
It could be the beginning of picking up a new hobby or a passion in life, that will change the rest of your life and routine. Focus and learning a skill can be beneficial for everyone, kids and adults alike and there is nothing like a shared experience to bolster this in the memories for shared stories of times and experiences together.
Child psychologists say that toys bought are often left unused but experiences are remembered long after and build life time memories through the excitement of trying something new together. So get out there, get exploring and see what Cornwall beachside and more has to offer!
