For over 60 years the Lane family and their crew have operated pleasure and fishing boats in Torbay and on the River Dart. Paignton Pleasure Cruises and Ferries aim to give all a memorable experience on the water with a wealth of knowledge about the bay, its coves, landmarks, history and wildlife. We are glad to pass on this interesting information about Torbay to all our passengers, young and old.

Services
Paignton Pleasure Cruises run a variety of different boat trips in and cruises around the shores of Torbay!. Mackerel Fishing - Two hours of fun for all the family aboard Boy Richard, with all tackle supplied. Coastal wildlife cruise viewing South Devons natural bird sanctuaries and wildlife on the rocks and coastline around Torbay.
These often cause grid lock on the Bays road infrastructure. What better way to travel across the Bay than by utilising one of our Ferries. Or, even better, why not charter a boat for your friends or colleagues and watch special events such as Firework displays and our most recent event The Torbay Airshow from the waters around the Bay.

Did the sunset cruise and have to say, it far exceeded my expectations. Driver/guide was fun and really knows his stuff. We were blessed with a wonderful evening. Saw a lot more than we were expecting and seeing the cruise ships so close was more interesting than I thought it was going to be. Highly recommended.

Thank you Ashley (and crew) for an amazing fishing trip for my 3 boys and I, yesterday morning. Loads of fish caught, knowledgeable crew and a great time had by all. You even arranged some dolphins for us! Highly recommend for a brilliant excursion in Torbay.

We were treated very well by Ashley and Phil we went out from Paignton harbour on the Dart princess to scatter some ashes, we were the only 2 on board. They took us out in between the cruise ships and angled the boat so that we were facing into the wind to make sure the ashes did not blow back, all done very considerably quiet and private as that was our wishes, plus we got to see the cruise ships up close which will probably be a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thanks captain Ashley ♥️
