Enterprise Boats

About

Enterprise Boats offers classic wooden ferry trips along the Fal River, taking you from the bustling harbour of Falmouth to the quaint riverside village of Malpas via the scenic Trelissick Gardens. The 45‑minute to two‑hour journey is dog‑friendly, bike‑friendly and accepts contactless payment, so families, couples and solo travellers can enjoy quick, hassle‑free excursions. Onboard, a knowledgeable skipper points out the river’s historic castles, tidal crests and local wildlife, while light refreshments and ample seating keep guests comfortable. The fleet is well‑maintained and offers open decks for panoramic views, making each trip a picturesque experience. The service runs up to seven days a week from April to October, matching the peak visitor season when the river’s natural beauty is at its best. Beyond the basic river tours, Enterprise Boats also offers themed high‑tide cruises to the cathedral city of Truro and high‑season special cruises aboard Moyana. Passengers can combine ferry trips with the popular Fal Mussel Card for discounted hop‑on hop‑off travel around the river, providing a flexible and affordable way to explore Cornwall’s coastal and inland attractions. Whether you’re a history enthusiast drawn to the Tudor castles and National Trust gardens, a nature lover keen on spotting seals and dolphin pods, or simply looking for a relaxing day on the water, Enterprise Boats delivers a memorable river adventure that highlights Cornwall’s natural charm and maritime heritage.
