‘We’re so excited to finally announce the launch of the beach tours – it’s been an idea we’ve had for years, and we’ve managed to put everything together for a 2016 launch!’
– Beth, a manager at Winter Sports Company
Winter Sports Company is pleased to announce we’re bringing the ski gear to the beach and launching ski tours in Cornwall.
Enjoy fantastic scenery – Praa Sands
Cross-country skiing is the perfect way to see west Cornwall – take in the beautiful landscape whilst you glide across golden sands. It’s the ideal activity for all ages, it’s a great way to spend time together as a family. Once you have the hang of it, you’ll be racing each other along the beach!
A typical one-day ski tour will see you learning the basics of cross country skiing in the morning and skiing across some of West Cornwall’s most stunning beaches. Beginners can choose from a choice of shorter beaches. Praa Sands and Porthmeor are perfect beginner terrain, and the more advanced beach skier can opt for the 3 mile stretch of Hayle Towans.

As experts on the snow, we’re confident we can introduce you to our favourite sport in a beach environment. We have expert instructors who can take you from absolute beginner to sand dune rider in just 1 day.

Your guide is a fully qualified instructor, and all beach ski equipment is provided, including knee and shoulder pads and helmets for those who want extra protection from falls. In addition, a picnic lunch is provided and will be enjoyed in secluded spots only accessible to beach skiers.
As part of the summer launch, 1-hour taster sessions will occur in Praa Sands on 31st April 2016.
