RIB Rides - RYA Training - RIB Charter
Book now for high speed boat rides viewing the spectacular Devon and Cornwall coastline. Popular amongst Families, Hen and Stag Parties, Corporate Clients, School Parties and Students to name just a few.
The ride of your life costs just £12 Adults & £7 Under 12s for a 30 minute ride.
Experience the excitement as you race out to sea flying over the waves while viewing the stunning Devon and Cornwall coastline in a rigid inflatable boat (RIB). The boat trips include wave hopping and fast turns at sea but the rides are adjusted to your requirements. On calm days the thrill of the ride may be experienced in the wake of other boats and catching our own wake on the fast turns. The rides are suitable for all ages from small children to the elderly. The highly qualified and experienced skipper ensures everyone is safe and comfortable at all times. In poor weather the rides are more exciting but do not run in strong winds.
South West RIB Rides is registered as one of Plymouth's attractions with the Tourist Information Centre since April 2004.
