Tours - Land and Sea

Regardless of where your final destination is, only a short hike away will let you glimpse at the region's past and present natural treasures. Everywhere the desert is doted with marine fossils, indicating that the entire area was once underwater. ATV riding and mountain biking are two of the land based adventures, that let you explore all this natural beauty real close and personally. Vehicles and equipment can be rented from local operators who also offer organized tours.

One or two day diving trips are also available and the boat captains are very knowledgeable of the best diving spots. You can even step back in time and be a pirate for a day aboard a British-built tall ship from the 1800s. Passengers can even take the helm as the crew fires cannons at imaginary foes.

Other sea tour operators accent on satisfying the more leisurely types. To keep your feet dry and still see the amazing tropical fish, climb aboard a glass bottom boat for a 45 minute round trip to Land's End.

For a full evening of entertainment and dining pleasure you may want to take a sunset cruise around the arch, but if a more romantic atmosphere is what you had in mind there are charter boats and yachts waiting to serve your desires.
