Bristol Ferry Boats

Bristol Ferry Boats

Bristol Ferry Boats are a great way to get around Bristol. They run water bus services around Bristol Harbour using a fleet of distinctive yellow and blue painted ferry boats. They run every day and they offer a variety of public trips including educational trips. They offer single fares for those wishing to get from A to B or round trips for those wanting to sit back and see the entire harbour.

They serve 7 landing stages; Temple Meads, Castle Park, City Centre, Wapping Wharf, SS Great Britain, Mardyke Wharf and the Cottage. Fares are determined by the length of your journey. Trips and events, they run include a Gin cruise, a Thursday Cruise to Beeses, Bands at Beeses cruise and a weekend shuttle to Beeses. Beeses is one of the most beautiful venues on Bristol’s waterways and there is no nicer way to get there than by boat.
