The Old Malt House is only a stroll from the harbour front and an ideal location for those who like to fish or simply take a boat trip along the coast. The bustling harbour is the hub of the town and home to over 60 commercial fishing vessels as well as an armada of pleasure tripping boats.

Many of the boatmen offer trips around the bay or up the river. Whilst it may not be common, there is always the chance of seeing a seal or a dolphin playing amongst the waves and if you take a trip on the glass bottomed boat, who knows what you might sea.

Other boats offer fishing trips, be it just to catch a few mackerel or to become a big game hunter and go in search of a mighty shark. At the other extreme, children find nothing more entertaining than sitting on the quayside and dangling a line over the edge to catch crabs.
