Welcome to the official site for the Bude
Canal and Harbour Society.
Boat Trip on the River Tamar visiting Morwellham Quay on Sat 20th July 2013 This year, for our annual outing, we have arranged a coach trip to Plymouth for a boat trip on the “Plymouth Princess” from the Barbican to Morwellham Quay. When we first arrive at Plymouth there will be time to take lunch or explore the Barbican and Sutton Harbour before we board the boat at 1.00pm for the 1½ hour trip up the River Tamar to Morwellham Quay. We will return to Bude by coach leaving Morwellham at 5.00pm. The combined fare for the coach, boat trip on the River Tamar and admission to Morwellham Quay is £25.00 per adult and £20.00 for children.
Hopefully you may have a few minutes to complete a quick survey on the Bude Canal and Marshes and how you and your family use these facilities. It really only takes a couple of minutes and will provide very useful information for those planning how the areas will be used in the future. Please have your say. You can print off the survey here please send your survey to Coralie Barrow Countryside Officer,
Environment Service,
Cornwall Council You may be able to complete the survey online using the link below but the link does not always seem to work!
