Harwich Harbour Foot Ferry

Foot and Bicycle Ferry connecting Harwich, Shotley and Felixstowe since 1912.

Reviewed By stingytownman - Huntingdon, United Kingdom

Took a trip from Harwich to Felixstowe on this nice little boat. It leaves 10 past every hour going out and picks up half past every hour coming back the trip takes fifteen minutes and lands you on the beach at Felixstowe close to the Languard Fort which is definitely worth a visit. The trip takes you very close to the big ships of the container port which I found fascinating. Definitely worth going out of your way to use the little boat though parking can be s big difficult in Harwich.

In this age of electronic gadgetry is really refreshing to get local advice and information from someone with personal knowledge of the local area. The volunteers who run the Felixstowe TIC beach hut are always good humoured and take great pleasure in helping tourists with their queries. Very well done one and all.

Adventure Golf

Reviewed By cg2792 - England, United Kingdom

Visited during the school holidays. Was really impressed with their Covid set up. Hand gel on arrival but they do only accept payment by cash though. We had a wait a short while as they staggered people starting so we could all stay a good distance apart and the course didn’t feel crowded. Course itself was brilliant and challenging at times. Highly recommended!
