The little steam launch ‘look-alike’ Daffodil, operates short 20 minute trips throughout the year in Cardiff Bay.
She is one of the only cruise boats currently operating on Cardiff Bay that is open to the sky offering you fresh air and unparalleled views of the Inner Harbour and it’s surroundings. Ideal if you’re taking pictures, wanting to enjoy the wildlife or like the feeling of the wind in your hair. A commentary is normally given too. There is no need to book in advance, just turn up and pay on board the boat.
Daffodil carries a maximum of 11 passengers and is also available to charter. The skipper of Daffodil has over 20 years experience of operating cruises around the Bay and it’s two rivers, and can offer you a full comprehensive commentary if required, or why not just sit back and watch the scenery pass you by.
Most cruises can be tailored to meet your particular requests. Just ask the skipper.
A visit to the Wetlands Area to view the abundant wildlife. A cruise up the River Ely to see the hundreds of boats moored at the Yacht Club and Marina. A tour of the Cardiff Bay Barrage, an engineering marvel of the world, with it’s locks, sluices and fish pass. Or just a short cruise around the Cardiff waterfront looking at some of the local history and spectacular modern developments.
Daffodil has a 18 year safety record and carries all her own safety equipment, and is fully licensed to operate within Cardiff Bay and the two rivers.
