The experience is good, going around the bay and the captain will introduce things along the sides. Just 6 pounds pp, a good deal for 20 minute ride.

Did the Lady Helen boat trip today and glad I did. Best thing I did in the area. I traveled solo so thought I might not be able to go on because boats usually need at least 3 people to cover the cost the trip but the captain did his best to get others on so I was able to. Recommend!

Fantastic ride on the lady Helen. Great views all round and a great captain. Happy days. 20 minute ride so not too long but plenty of opportunity for great pics.

We went on the lady Helen boat trip today , fab value and good experience for the kids and adults , the guy who was the captain of the boat was lovely. We also got there just before the boat came in so we didn't even have to wait. Thank you

Amazing 20 minute boat ride. The captain was really helpful and even had some blankets on hand which was lovely as it hard started to rain. He also let my 3 year old steer briefly which she loved. Would highly recommend
