Polruan Ferry

Polruan Ferry Polruan Ferry operates a daily passenger ferry service between Polruan and Fowey in Cornwall. All of our ferries are available for private hire.

The passenger ferry operates a continuous daily service between Polruan and Fowey. Not only does it provide an essential link between Fowey and Polruan for residents and visitors, but also access to local walks such as the Hall Walk either starting or finishing in Polruan, as well as linking the coast path that comes into Polruan from Polperro with the continuing path from Fowey. The service opera

tes everyday, except Christmas Day, and runs continually leaving each side approximately every 10 - 15 minutes during hours of service. Dogs, bicycles and pushchairs are all welcome but please be aware that the ferry is reached by steps at all landings. Where possible the ferry staff will do their best to assist with pushchairs. During the winter months (and summer evenings) the service runs from Polruan Quay to Town Quay in the centre of Fowey. In the summer months the ferry runs to Whitehouse slip during the day, Whitehouse is situated on the Esplanade and is less than a five minute walk from the main street in Fowey. We have four ferries, Three Cousins and Lady Jean are licensed to carry 12 passengers, Lady Di to carry 27 passengers and Kaley to carry 48 passengers. Three Cousins or Lady Jean are used on a daily basis with Lady Di or Kaley providing the service during busy periods and throughout much of the summer. All of our ferries are regularly inspected and carry full safety equipment. If you are planning a trip for a large group please contact us to let us know how many people would like to travel and when and if necessary we can arrange additional ferries to meet your needs. Our preferred method of payment is by card but cash is also acccepted. Ferry services are subject to the weather conditions.
