Description

With as few as 15 people or as many as 54, your group can take a cruise down to picturesque Felixstowe Ferry or if the tide allows, up to historic Woodbridge. A galley on board provides refreshments with many of our groups choosing to book freshly baked scones.

The tidal Deben estuary is a Special Protection Area and is within the Suffolk Coast and Heath’s area of outstanding natural beauty.

Our on board commentary tells of its rich wildlife and history. Our cruises depart twice daily at 11am and 2pm and last 2 hours. Prices start from £9pp.

There’s ample parking for coaches on the quay, pay and display for cars behind the pub and wheelchair access to the boat.

The Maybush Inn, is adjacent to us and our gallery and gift shop is always popular. We sell local ice cream which is popular on a hot day.

Don’t worry if you are not part of a group, look on our website for cruises with availability.
