The iconic Shotley to Harwich and Felixstowe foot and cycle ferry returns operating on Monday.

Christian Zemann has completed the refurbishment of the ferry which suffered a serious setback last September when it became partially submerged following a storm, which took it from its mooring in Harwich. (full story here...)

Journeys for the 2021 season will start from the jetty at Shotley marina from 10.00 on Monday, March 29. It will then every run hour, except 13.00, until 16.00, with the last ferry back from Harwich leaving Ha'penny Pier at 15.50.

Only 12 passengers will allowed at the moment, eventually rising to 58 when permitted, and the trip will take seven minutes.
