Choose your time on the water
A crossing, a cruise or the helm
Passenger ferries offer a way to travel around the estuary; a guided cruise makes the journey the outing. If you would rather take the helm, the listings include self-drive boat hire and sailing tuition. Choose the experience first, then speak to the operator about the right option for your group.
Before you set off
For hire or tuition, confirm experience requirements, passenger numbers, supplied equipment and the agreed area of use. For a ferry, check the departure point and return timetable with the operator. The ferry guide brings the routes together; follow your operator’s advice about conditions on the day.
