Stand Up Paddleboarding on the Helford River: An Unforgettable Adventure
Discover the breathtaking beauty of the Helford River on a Stand Up Paddleboard (SUP) adventure. Our 2-hour guided tour begins from the private beach at the stunning Budock Vean Hotel. Your experienced guide will provide expert tuition and equip you with everything you need to enjoy your paddleboarding experience safely and comfortably.
For beginners, we’ll explore the calm and sheltered waters of Port Navas Creek. This picturesque spot is steeped in history, featuring charming riverfront houses, tranquil smaller creeks, and lush wooded surroundings. For more experienced paddlers, we offer exciting excursions to Frenchman’s Creek or the hidden beaches and caves near Durgan, depending on tides and wind conditions.
Whether you’re paddling through serene waters or soaking in the rich history of the area, the Helford River offers a truly magical experience. The peaceful atmosphere, diverse wildlife, and stunning scenery all combine to create a unique adventure in one of the UK’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. On sunny days, there’s also the opportunity to swim in the crystal-clear waters of the secluded creeks before paddling back to the comfort of Budock Vean.
