Cheeky little boat ride with ‘Captain Gorgeous’ as he wants to be known. Lovely little 20 minute ride around the bay with snippets of info thrown in. Well worth it.

Had an amazing boat tour around the bay! It was a small trip with a super nice captain who shared some great history along the way. Since it was a quiet day, we basically got a private tour, which made it even better. He was kind enough to drop us off at a different spot, saving us an Uber ride—such a thoughtful touch! The price was really reasonable too. Highly recommend this tour if you're looking for a relaxed and informative experience on the water.

A fantastic boat ride yesterday upon the daffodil, The captain was lovely and very talkative a great little ride. It was not very expensive, I would highly recommend going for a ride on this boat ☺️.

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 £6 (£3 for children) Brilliant. Thank you.

A great way to see Cardiff Bay! The boat trip took 20 minutes and cost £6 each. Our captain was very friendly and full of facts along our journey - it was great to find out new things about Cardiff after living here for 9 years!
