About St Martin’s Watersports
What to expect at the watersports base
St Martin’s Watersports sits in Higher Town, one of the main settlements on the island. The location gives easy access to the sea for launching and landing. Visitors will find a small operation rather than a large centre, because the island has a quiet, low key character. The phone number 07470 711857 is the main way to check what is available on a given day. The official website is also a useful source for current information. Nearby names include Seal Snorkelling Adventures, The Old Quay and the COSMOS Community Observatory. These sit close enough to make a day on this side of the island feel varied without needing long walks.
Planning a visit nearby
A visit to St Martin’s Watersports fits well with a wider look at the island’s coast. The Flats and Little Bay are two nearby coastal names, both within reach of Higher Town. Because St Martin’s is small, most visitors move around on foot. Then, after a watersports session, a walk to one of these bays can fill the rest of the afternoon. St Martin’s Self Catering is also close, which suits anyone staying overnight. The island has no large attractions, so the appeal comes from the water, the beaches and the slow pace. Visitors should bring suitable clothing and check ferry times back to the other islands, because the schedule is not always frequent. A phone call to the watersports team before setting out is the most reliable way to plan the day.
