Step back in time and join us for a truly exceptional day out aboard the magnificent Waverley Paddle Steamer – the world’s last seagoing paddle steamer.
There is something wonderfully nostalgic about Waverley. With her great paddle wheels turning, the sound of the steam engine and the sea breeze on your face, she takes you back to a golden age of seaside holidays and leisurely days by the coast.
Launched in 1946, Waverley is a remarkable piece of British maritime history and remains the very last of the great seagoing paddle steamers. She is powered by her impressive original-style steam machinery, with those enormous paddle wheels providing the unmistakable sights and sounds of a traditional steamship.
So sit back, relax and enjoy the wonderful Dorset coastline from the deck – perhaps with a cup of tea, a little something to eat and the gentle rhythm of the paddles turning beneath you.
