Coasteering is one of the best ways of exploring St. Mary’s incredible coastline. Trips are based in the waters around the unique granite shapes of Peninnis Head. “Explore gullies, piles of giant boulders to scramble, swim and get washed under, towering granite cliffs and, of course, HUGE jumps” – says Kernow Coasteering, who run these awesome trips.
