Angling Charters
Angling is a popular pastime in Pembrokeshire. There are many different types of terrain and water conditions so a high variety of species to be caught. The sand banks off the Milford Haven approaches harbour species such as tope, blonde ray, thornback turbot, spurdog, bass and dabs. The islands of Skomer, Skokholm, Grassholm and reefs off the Smalls Lighthouse provide varied fishing for pollack, coalfish, cod and bass. Volsung has a live bait system fitted for use with greater sand eels and small mackerel, ideal for bass. We offer the following trips...

  Dive Charters
The Marine Reserve and particularly the wreck of the Lucy attract many divers to Skomer Island. There are many other sites around the islands and within Milford Haven offering a diverse range of dive sites. For the more adventurous and experienced divers the area around the Smalls Lighthouse offers the best diving in Pembrokeshire.

  Scenic and Wildlife Cruise Charters

The Milford Haven Waterway and West Pembrokeshire coast and islands offer some of the best marine sightseeing in the UK, and being ideally located in the heart of this area, Broadside Boat Charter offers a variety of cruises to groups/organisations wishing to charter the boat.

Travelling up the Waterway offers a variety of sightseeing, from the huge tankers visiting the fascinating oil and LNG terminals
that contrast dramatically with the picturesque and peaceful wildlife havens further up river. There are a
number of waterside hostelries that can be included in your itinerary.

Heading out to sea to the offshore islands is a wonderful experience for anyone interested in wildlife. Usually difficult to see, marine birds such
as puffins, guillemots, razorbills and shearwaters are common place here and Grassholm is
home to around 65,000 breeding gannets.

Seals are abundant and porpoises and dolphins can also be seen in the faster moving currents around the islands.

Cruise charters can include a spot of fishing and/or a stop off in a secluded bay for a swim a picnic or even a barbeque of freshly caught mackerel.
Cruise charters start from £240 for a full day for up to 12 passengers. Depart from Milford Haven or Dale dependent on tide.
