Sightseeing Public Trips

This covers sightseeing cruises and other such public trips. Take a scenic pleasure boat trip on a river, lake, or coastline, or spend a beautiful spring or summers day cruising along a canal in a narrowboat. Boat trips can be a great way to sightsee a part of the coast, countryside, city, town, or village. Explore parts of the country that you can only see on a boat trip. Sightseeing boat trips can give that holiday feel, a million miles away from the daily grind. Whatever the season. Not all boat activities stop with the end of summer. Some continue into the winter months, giving you that touch of a spring/summer's day during the otherwise dull winter months!

Wildlife Watching

Always wanted to see whales, dolphins, seals, sharks, and other such wildlife in their natural habitat? Or how about some birdwatching? Thought you would have to travel abroad for such pursuits? Wrong. These boat trips are available right here in the UK. There is plenty of wildlife to be spotted off our shores. For further information on wildlife you can spot around the UK, see the wildlife listed under 'Wildlife Watching'.

Fishing

Find yourself an angling/fishing boat trip using the Boat District directory. Whether you want to charter your own angling boat trip, or join in with a pre-organised fishing trip.

Charter Or Hire

You can charter/hire a boat as a venue for an occasion, such as a birthday, wedding, engagement, retirement, hen or stag party, school trip, corporate trip, and other general group activities.
Charter or hire also covers fishing charters, sailing charters, hire of craft such as rowing boats, motor boats, canoes, narrowboats, and so on.

Lessons

Lessons covers tuition for yachts, narrowboats, motorboats, canoes, kayaks, and other vessels.

Holidays

Holidays on narrowboats, house boats, hotel boats, cruisers, and so forth. There are plenty of canals, rivers, lakes, lochs and coastlines to explore at leisure in the UK.

Diving

Boat trips offering diving excursions.

Ferry

Travelling somewhere and want to know if there is a boat trip offering a ferry service?

Narrowboat

Narrowboat vessels are often used for public sightseeing boat trips, day hire, boating holidays, and so forth.

Sailing

Sailing boats are often available for holidays, training, day hire and private charter, and so on.

Restaurant

A restaurant aboard a boat can add that little bit extra, that something special that seems above and beyond what you'd normally experience when going to a restaurant for a meal. A boat restaurant, or a boat trip with a dining experience, is a great idea for a planned occasion, or for giving a loved one a surprise!

Boat Museum

It can be quite exciting and interesting exploring around historical ships, taking a leap back in time. Educational too!
