Watersports in Eden Project
Overview
Near to YHA Eden Project is St Austell Bay and the Cornish Riviera where you can take part in sailing and other watersports or just take in the beautiful sandy beaches. Polkerris Beach (4.5 miles away) combines an idyllic sandy Cornish cove with first class watersports facilities like windsurfing, sailing, SUPing, kayaking and powerboating. It’s as good for a day trip as it is for a two-week holiday or intensive watersport course and popular with locals and holiday-makers alike.
