🦢 A Little Extra Magic Before You Sail 🦆
Feel free to visit The Secret Stanley Ferry Shop before your rides next week to pick up some swan and duck food. You’ll be able to feed them while onboard, as we’ll be moored just outside the shop — a lovely way to add something special to your time on the water.

Swanlets 😍 (I know they’re called Cygnets, but I prefer Swanlets!!)

Don’t forget, we sell floating swan & duck food - better for the birds, better for the water. Only 50p a bag
