Waveski in Cornwall
Vertical Descents offers Waveskiing in various locations around Cornwall.
Waveskiing is an exciting and fun activity that's relatively easy and accessible for everyone. Our sit-on-top inflatable waveskis can be used for scenic wildlife estuary tours or for riding the waves. We have single and two person, rigid, highly manoeuvrable sit-on-top kayaks.
We can teach you how to enjoy them on flat water and progress you out into the waves. Paddling down the face of a wave with your buddy or on your own is a wild water experience not to be missed, a great way to enjoy the surf.
We also offer tours on our sit-on-top kayaks around the estuaries of Cornwall - see below for details. We also offer beginner kayaking sessions in the harbour where we can play games and have a lot of fun in a safe enclosed environment.

Who's it for?
Kayaking and waveskiing is suitable for everyone. Our tandem boats enable us to take both young and old experienced or not. We can teach you everything you need to have a great time and if you can't get to grips with it you can always enjoy spending your session with one of our instructors on a tandem kayak.
