Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta

20th August 2024

Here at the Dartmouth Steam Railway, we are running additional trains on Regatta Saturday, 31st August. Extra trains depart Paignton at 18:00, 19:45 and 21:00 with returning trains from Kingswear at 18:40, 20:20 and 22:00. This last departure leaves you plenty of time to watch the fireworks and catch the ferry back to Kingswear for your return journey.

  • Perfect day - We have done this several times over the years and is a fantastic day out. The steam train ride is great, but the cruise makes it. The commentary is very good and funny. Would definitely recommend this trip if in the area.
  • Nostalgic - We included a cruise on our trip and spent an hour on the paddlesteamer (the captain pointing out some interesting features and telling a few stories along the way). This was a very enjoyable day and worth every penny.
  • Fantastic visit - We chose to do the steam train and river cruise and it was fantastic. The staff were very helpful. After using the ferry to cross the river we went to find somewhere to have a snack before getting onto the cruise. The commentary was brilliant and we were pointed out different landmarks throughout the cruise. Thank you Dartmouth Steam Railway.
