** Please note that these boat trips from Mullion Cove are not operating this year **
Mullion Cove is a small fishing harbour on the west coast of the Lizard Peninusula. Just off the harbour is Mullion Island which is a bird sanctuary.
A boat trip with Barry Mundy on his boat, The Flowing Tide, is an enjoyable and informative experience. Barry has always worked a boat from Mullion, as did his father and grandfather before him and he is therefore a world of knowledge.
Barry will take you around the Island and along the coastline exploring all the little coves. He will show you the seal caves and introduce you to the resident seals. If you would like to have a go at fishing all equipment will be provided and with Barry's expert guidance you should hopefully reel in a fish or two!
The boat is fully licensed and conforms to all HM Coastguard's strict safety requirements.
