Scilly Isles - Pembrokeshire Cruises

Price: £748 pp

Basking in a micro climate caused by the gulf stream, the white sparkling sands and crystal clear waters create a paradise which is a closer cruising destination than you may think. With over a dozen anchorages in the archipelago to choose from the Scilly Isles is a haven of tranquillity to cruise in.

Some of our favourite islands, anchorages and visitor moorings can be found in New Grimsby Sound, lying between Tresco & Bryher, The Cove at St Agnes, with a visit to the Turks Head to wet the whistle. St Martins Bay on the east of the Island or Tean Sound on the west, offer great visitor moorings. St Marys’ Hugh Town, the capital of the Scillies is ideal for lunch at the Mermaid then a spot of shopping and victualling.

Padstow & Lundy Island are on route from Neyland to the Scillies and are a great place to stop at on your cruise. The light house and Marisco Pub on Lundy and the Fish & Chips in Padstow are worth dropping anchor for.

First Evening

Meet your skipper and fellow crew members at Neyland Marina. Over the crews first supper together in the Marina Bar your Skipper will explain the weather forecast and tidal conditions for the days ahead and discuss the Adventure Cruise itinerary. Before jumping into sleeping bags for a good nights rest, you may wish to explore the marina facilities.

First Day & onwards

Exact departure times from the Marina will vary according to weather and tidal conditions, but once under sail we will journey down to the mouth of the Cleddau Estuary and out into the Celtic Sea. After the exhilarating overnight passage we arrive amongst the wonderful Isles of Scilly and take time to explore ashore. The islands each have a different character and navigation between them provide an excellent chance to brush up on your pilotage skills.

After several days exploring the islands by sea and shore we make the return journey. We make a stop over at either Padstow an ancient, busy fishing port with picturesque cottages nestling in the narrow streets leading down to the harbour and quays or Lundy a peaceful nature reserve located off the North Devon coast, a stunning location for our last stop before heading home to Neyland Marina.

Please be aware that itineraries may be revised due to weather conditions at time of Adventure Cruise.

The family sailing weekend was fantastic and I can’t wait to join Pembrokeshire Cruising on the water again in 2021. Edryd Vaughan RYA Start Yachting 2020

The family sailing weekend was fantastic
Our Skipper Dave is a legend, he put in so much effort to ensure the whole family got as much out of the week as possible (without pushing anyone too hard) and gave us so much of his time, he was brilliant with our kids and with us. Nikki was fantastic in organising everything and we were reassured by the Covid measures in place which were excellent. The experience feels like it can’t possibly only have been 5 days, we all learned so much! A pint at Dale with the boat on the pontoon, tendering to the beach with the kids, swimming off the boat and learning the basics of sailing! Formative memories for my kids (and probably for us too!) As Dave said, at nine minutes past eleven on Monday the 14th of September 2020 my life changed forever! We will be back… Will Franklin and family – Family Sailing Holiday 2020

Family Sailing Holiday 2020 – My life changed forever!
I have chartered from Pembrokeshire Cruises numerous times, their service and support were excellent as usual. Under the restrictions of Covid, it was a new experience taking charge of the boat but Nikki and Roland had installed an excellent hand-over and briefing procedure that worked seamlessly without fuss. I was really impressed with how effective and reassuring the procedures worked, clearly with a focus on a responsible attitude towards the safety of their clients. I have no hesitation in repeating our very successful experience. Peter Edwards 2020 – Yacht Charter – Otter Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 379

I was really impressed how effective and reassuring the handover procedures worked
Our family completed the RYA Competent Crew on our 2020 Summer Holiday. We were extremely confident with the Covid-19 measures in place. Bart Chodysz and family 2020
