Absolutely fantastic experience, Matt and his team were great and the route we took was superb. They made sure everyone was included regardless of ability and supported people who found coasteering a challenge enabling them to overcome their fears. My 15 year old who hates everything said it was the best thing he has done in years and by far and away the best thing about our holiday.

Booked on a 4 hour deep sea fishing trip aboard Mystique - Great afternoon out for beginner and expert alike - thankyou - very comprehensive online booking and pre-trip Covid information - on the day we watched all handrails and seats on the boat being cleaned before we were allowed to board. Wayne was a very knowledgeable and helpful skipper - I only managed to catch a dogfish, a scad, a poor cod and 2 jellyfish !!! But others caught a massive tope shark, a bull huss, several bream, a red gurnard, numerous dogfish, a wrasse and a even a starfish haha...so if it was a species count we totally lucked out - (fish fingers for my tea though, but I really enjoyed it and will book again) cheers xx

My brother and I had a fantastic weekend canoeing ???? up the river Tamar with a lovely set of people, under the watch of our very knowledgeable & friendly guide - Jack. Setting off late Friday afternoon, we and a small group of people canoed to Cotehele - before setting up camp for the evening. We chose to sleep under tarps (though you could take a small tent too). The canoes easily carried all our equipment - though we soon realised that a cushion would have been a useful addition ;-) Next morning, we were up bright and early for a full morning canoeing up the Tamar. Simply stunning views in a serene setting with a lot of wildlife. Back to camp for some lunch followed by some bushcraft skills (very proud that we "made fire"). After tea we had another short paddle before settling down under the stars with the owls again. Sunday morning we packed up our kit and canoed back to where we first started, feeling very happy that we chose to go with SOS. Would most definitely recommend this trip and company - we had a fabulous time and look forward to trying one of their other offerings too.
