We are flexible on the age of children, but they have to be a minimum of 1.2 metres tall. Sorry, babies and toddlers are not strong enough to hold on if the boat trip gets a bit bouncy. Children cannot be held on laps; there are no seat belts. So the children have to be strong enough to be able to hold on tight; if you turn up with a baby or toddler and the skipper deems they are not strong enough for the conditions, they will be turned away with no refund. In our estimation, usually, children need to be around six years old, but as we all know, there are a variety of strengths and sizes in Young Children.
