Sail & Wild Swim

Sail to Plymouth Sound's hidden coves aboard Bounty for a wild swim in crystal-clear water, secluded spots reachable only by boat, with optional paddleboarding.

Truly memorable. Sailing on Bounty was a real highlight — such a unique boat, and you can feel her long voyage in her woodwork. Satisfaction from building a camp with fires that burned all night.

Conrad's stories make you see adventure on a whole new level. A beautiful way to see Plymouth and an incredible glimpse of Captain Bligh's survival at sea. Don't miss this!

Really enjoyed the time on the boat. With Conrad explaining what the project was about and some of the occurrences on the expedition, being aboard put everything into context. A great experience. Thank you!

Well, what can I say? We thoroughly enjoyed our voyage with Conrad and six other sailors on a lovely Saturday afternoon. The history behind this boat is fantastic.

A wonderful evening sail — welcoming, relaxing and beautiful. With encouragement from Conrad, we all felt confident to join in and experience our first sailing trip.

My children had an amazing time with Conrad. They were very fortunate to see wild dolphins swimming with the boat. Memories they will never forget. We will be back!

Well, what can I say? We thoroughly enjoyed our little “voyage” with Conrad and six other sailors on a lovely Saturday afternoon. The history behind this relatively small boat is fantastic and what Conrad has done and continues to do is excellent. I just wish we could have spent more time. Thanks for a great experience!

Who'd have thought a 240-year-old lifeboat could clock 7.4 knots! Conrad was the perfect host and skipper. Even the landlubbers loved it!
