About

If you are short for time and you want to take a closer look at the yachts and power boats moored within our harbour why not take advantage and book a harbour tour. The ferry takes you around Cindery Island which is a salt marsh and is home to many local birds and wildlife. If tides are right, you could even pass one of our frequent commercial cargo ships. Discover interesting facts along the way from Roman times to modern day.

Brightlingsea Harbour is a hidden gem just 10 miles from the City of Colchester. It is an historic Cinque Port rich in heritage but also a fun and exciting place to explore no matter what your age is.  Whether it be going ono of our ferry and boat trips, an afternoon crabbing, a day at the Lido or visiting the interactive local museum or perhaps taking a stroll  along the beach enjoying  the stunning views or simply a nice lunch in one of our many delightful eateries.

Your four legged friends are welcome too on all our ferry and boat trips.
