Welcome to the CoaST website. We work with everyone involved in tourism and its many, (many!) related industries (from cake-makers to photographers, recycling collectors to beer brewers) in Cornwall to ensure tourism delivers social, economic and environmental benefit to Cornwall, as well as a fantastic holiday for all our visitors.

It's all about One Planet Tourism: Cornwall's a fantastic place to visit, to live and to work; it's even better when we do it within our resources. And we absolutely believe that as there isn't one single way of making everything right overnight, that every single small thing adds up to make that big difference.

Small steps. Big impact. And that takes us - as one member says - Way Beyond Tourism.

A sustainable tourism industry in Cornwall: one hotel, one campsite, one boat-ride, one meal, one journey, one visitor, one holiday at a time. Which means all businesses, and groups, and communities, from all tourism and non-tourism sectors, working collectively. And our job at CoaST is to try and help that happen.

And we do this three ways:
