Enjoy a leisurely Sunday afternoon and cruise from the large flooded river valley (ria) in Falmouth Bay to its smaller twin with Heritage Adventures.
Learn about their evolution through time and the wealth of archaeological sites and historical structures lining their shores and the open coast in between - from submerged forests, cliff castles, forts, ports and mines to quays, 'hards', 'passages' and a Frenchman's Creek.
This cruise takes places aboard our luxury vessel: Moyana.
With a beautifully fitted out comfortable indoor seating area, top deck viewing area and fully stocked bar with lots of Cornish tipples, Moyana is the perfect boat to enjoy an informative cruise.
