Waverley & Balmoral Boat Cruises

The Paddle Steamer Waverley and Motor Vessel Balmoral are the last remaining ships of their type offering day, afternoon and evening cruises on the rivers and estuary of the Bristol Channel.

Waverley was built in one of the world famous Clyde Shipyards and Balmoral was built by Thorneycroft of Southampton. Both ships are part of the National Core Collection of Historic Ships. These sea-going ships are over 200ft long and passengers can stroll around the promenade sun decks, see the gleaming engine rooms, take refreshments in the dining saloons and bars and enjoy the comfortable heated observation lounges.
