A 20 minute trip around the Bay. Not too long for the little ones, and perfect if you're on a tight schedule. PLEASE NOTE WE MAY NOT BE OPEN TODAY? Please scroll down to the first post on the Facebook page (The Open Boat) daily for the latest update. NO NEED TO BOOK just turn up between 10:30am and 3pm
You just turn up and get on board, maximum of 11 passengers, but it's only a 20min wait before he returns. Very knowledgable 'Captain' about the local sites as you cruise around the Bay. Very reasonable cost at PS6 (PS3 for children) Brilliant. Thank you.
Marvellous travelling experience with the great Captain of the Cardiff bay. Boat ride was very reasonably priced PS6 / person for a 20 min ride. Accept card payments on the boat I will highly recommend him to every one who visit cardiff bay , do look for the Captain for a splendid boat ride. He has so much local knowledge No need to prebook just get to the cardiff bay and look for the great sir, cheapest parking is mermaid quay car park.
On time, warm welcoming captain of the Daffodil. We took a trip around the bay, where he explained how the bay came to be and pointed out the important landmarks. Cashless payment in the boat.
Wonderful trip, very nice and funny gentleman and had a lovely time, would definitely go again to see the handsome captain!
Wish we had time to go around twice. Lovely little boat and a superb tour of the bay. Great skipper...friendly, fun and knowledgeable. A nice end to a fab weekend in Cardiff.
A pleasure to board this great little boat for our guided tour around the bay of Cardiff. Skippered by a master of the seas who shares his knowledge of the features and treasures of your surroundings, no pirates to be concerned with on this voyage which lasts approximately 20 minutes, just sit back and enjoy, highly recommended by Max and Angie of Exeter.
