A Shields Ferry - either the Pride of the Tyne or the brand new Spirit of the Tyne - operates across the River Tyne between North and South Shields ferry landings every 30 minutes in each direction. The crossing takes about seven minutes. Both boats are also available for private hire and used for river trips along the Tyne on some Sunday afternoons in the summer. For full details see Private hire / Afternoon River Trips.
