Boat Place Opening

Last updated: 10 May 2006

On 9 May 2006 a new education and resource centre for boat users in Cardigan Bay was opened on Newquay Harbour. The Boat Place aims to raise awareness of the Special Area of Conservation that stretches North and South along the coastline from Newquay and the code of conduct for boat users in the bay.

Cliff Davies took over as Treasurer of the Cardiganshire Coastal Protection Society in 1976. However, he says, there weren't any meetings as most of the members had passed on.

Cliff: "We'd been looking for something to do with the money which had been accruing interest ever since I took over as treasurer. We found out about the Boat Place when my wife attended a talk about the project at the WI. We thought the project was perfect for the aims of the original group. I would love it if the other members were alive to see that this has finally happened."
