Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    The best experience. Our capitan Milo was just amazing, he looked after us very well. I took my mum, father and my sister. My mum was a little bit sceptical but after 5min she calmed down and enjoyed the ride. It was supposed to be a very gentle cruise ride but when he saw that everyone is enjoying he kicked the engine a bit.

    So in the end we had 2 in 1. Beautiful long ride plus a bit of blast.

    Highly recommended 👌
    Thank you Milo

    Relaxing and very enjoyable couple of hours with Nick guiding us up and down the River Brit. Highly recommended.

    We went on the one hour mackerel trip. We didn't catch anything but who cares! The sun was shining, the view was great and the crew were really friendly. My boys (age 10 and 11) really enjoyed it even though they didn't catch a fish and want to do it again.

    Brilliant way to spend some quality family time in beautiful surroundings! Our son, d-i-l and 2 littlies have done this on 2 previous West Bay holidays but it was our first time. There were 2 boats left and we set off with a picnic, which we had 'rafted up' by the bank before turning round to row back, great fun - the 2 & 4 year olds enjoyed swapping boats! . The boats were very easy to row, with the rudder operated by the front passenger. The owner was lovely and we're already looking forward to a return visit :)

    Matt the skipper is the cultural angle on this. He knows the fishing, the currents and the tides and he knows about fishing and passing on his knowledge and enthusiasm. His boat is a working boat and he is a working bloke. Workmanlike and straight down the line he was easily in his element.

    His sense of fun passes itself on to the guests and he is able to deal with people of all ages and experiences. On our trip he kept people for 7-70+, including a visually impaired person, interested and amused as well as putting us over some good fishing.

    He managed to keep us all fishing and satisfied with the catch that resulted.
