July 2023 Update: Harbour Festival, new trips, plus more!
Hello and welcome to our July blog post!
We're looking forward to the Bristol Harbour Festival this weekend (15 & 16 July, 2023) – we'll be taking the ship out sailing around Floating Harbour across the weekend, so keep an eye out for us if you're coming down for the festival!
Better still, come and join us... most tickets are now sold out, but we do still have a few left for Saturday and Sunday sailings.
Don't forget, we also have lots more Harbour Trips coming up throughout the school summer holidays, so if you're not around for the Harbour Festival, there are plenty of other trips for you to choose from. See our current timetable for all the dates!
New trips just added!
Yo-ho-ho, me hearties! We had another fantastic trip with our pirate friends, the brilliant Piratitude, this month. And we’ve just announced our final trip of the year with the salty old seadogs. Aaarrr!
We'll be heading out on a Fish & Chips Trip with them again on September 20th and we'd love for you to join us.
Tickets are on sale now →
We have also announced some additional Fish & Chips Trips and Avon Gorge Cruises, taking us up to the end of September.
You’ll find all of our upcoming 2023 dates listed on our Eventbrite booking page.
