Visited Anglesey for my other half's birthday. Booked on the 10.30am rib ride from Beaumaris to blow away the cobwebs from the night before. Well, the cobwebs were well and truly blown away....as were our expectations...... The ride was fun, fast and they stories fascinating. We saw puffins, seals, extremely rare black guillemot's and even dolphins! Can't recommend this ride... More

Excellent hour spent on the Menai Straits. Matt the captain was very good with the information on places we were passing. Then on the way back did a couple of doughnuts and opened up the engines. Just wrap up warm the wind really makes you feel cold at top speeds and maybe a pair of sunglasses so your eyes are... More

We hired the whole boat for my mom's 65th birthday with Charles at the wheel who was excellent, he not only told us lots of interesting facts and views whilst on our trip on the menus straits but he also had us laughing all the way back with the many twists and turns . Charles was also good because he... More

Travelled from Beaumaris to Puffin Island. Sea was choppy which added to the fun. Saw seals, puffins and a variety of other birds. Also had a good laugh. These craft can really motor! Next time will go on a different trip up the menai Straits. Thoroughly recommended. A great way to spend an hour but take waterproofs and wrap up... More

What a great way to spend an afternoon in wales. Lead by Charles (very informative and interesting on local life and habitat), we set out over large waves to Puffin Island. En route you will see seals, various birds and puffins. Great trip, fun ride and scream if you want to go faster. The weather wasn't great, but considering you'll... More

I bought two tickets as a 40th birthday present, gift for the guy who has everything! It was a treat! The communication from the guys from start to end was clear and concise. When Matt arrived he explained the journey and ensured we were all safely vested up! He made you feel confident in his ability with the boat, allowing... More

We made the most of beautiful weather and phoned for late availability of a rib ride along the straits. Our party of five were on the boat within the hour. We had a fabulous time, our Captain Charles was full of lots of information and we all especially enjoyed the "walnut whip". This was the second time for us on... More

Too good. Not often you get so much fun packed into an hour. Kids 7 and 9 had a thrill! Make sure you're dressed up warm at this time of year - comfort is the essence rather than beauty and then you'll be away. Just enjoy.
