Tips if you are going to do Boat Trips in United Kingdom

Scott Iman Jones posted on 02 June 2021 10:35 | Reading time: 4 Minutes

Few activities can provide the same feelings and experiences as boating can. There’s just something so unique about floating on the water that elicits a sense of wonder unmatched by other activities. If you’re looking to experience this – either for the first time or want another – we’ve gathered the top 5 reasons why boating should be your next choice of adventure!

1. Discover hidden gems

One of the main allures of boat trips is to access the inaccessible. The UK’s coastline is so vast and full of hidden islands – and locals all across the country want to share with those visiting. Take a trip from the port in the early hours of the morning, or the late hours of dusk, and make discoveries you’ve never even thought of. There’s so much natural beauty that remains unseen, channel your inner Columbus and go explore!

2. Perfect for organising events

Whether you’re looking to hire a yacht or book a river cruise, we have every boat trip available for you to organise the perfect event! You can get a group of friends together to enjoy a day sipping cocktails off the coast, or even organise a classy dinner cruising down one of the UK’s famous canals – it’s perfect even for a hen/stag do. Whatever the occasion, make it one like never before!

3. Exclusivity and intimacy

Boat trips are experiences most people dream of yet rarely come across the means to actually go – so being able to book one puts you in a unique position. So why not go the extra (nautical) mile and enjoy it all for yourself! Boating is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the company your nearest and dearest in an exclusive and intimate setting, riding the waves and catching up on your lives together for a few hours of blissful escape.

4. Experience unforgettable moments

Unbeknownst to some, the UK actually has an incredible array of natural marine beauty, with one of the only ways to enjoy it being on a boat. There is a plethora of tours available that allow you to get up close and personal with dolphins, seals, and even whales! Making for some of the most unforgettable moments you’ll ever witness. Be sure not to miss it!

5. For the fresh, salty air

After a long week at work in the hustle and bustle of the city, the body craves an idyllic getaway, and there’s nothing quite like taking a deep, filling breath of the freshest air the world has to offer. Humans are naturally drawn to water, and the refreshing remedy of the salty sea breeze is enough to cure the most stressful of times – take the perfect opportunity to heal your mind, body and soul by taking to the sea.

When should I hire a boat tour in the UK?

The perfect moment to enjoy boating trips around the UK is most definitely in the summer/autumn months. The warmth of the sun, refreshing quality of the air and beautiful golden hours make for an experience like no other – especially when on the water. However, this doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it during the other times of year. Dining out on a river cruise or touring the waters inland are usually undertaken on roofed boats, meaning you can still venture out onto the waters during the rainier seasons. So what are you waiting for?

Oliver's experience

We enjoyed our day along the canal in the narrow boat which was comfortable and so very peaceful. Would love to do it again.

Carolyn's experience

An excellent experience, saw lots of birds and learnt loads as a result of a very knowledgeable guide - even heard the bittern booming. Good fun and felt very safe. I will definitely go again when next in Norfolk.

David's experience

This was our first trial of cruising in a narrowboat other than as a short trip when part of a group. We had a long weekend family break mostly on the Bridgewater Canal. Our party comprised two of us over 65, two in their 30s and their three children; 6, 5 and 18 months. We found that we learned very quickly what we could and couldn't do with a 60+ feet long boat! Some of the other, more regular canal users were quite abusive but, in the vast majority of cases very friendly and helpful. The instructions given us by Danny at Coleman's were detailed and excellent and covered everything we needed to know apart from where, on the canals, there are places wide enough to turn around and return - although he did show us clearly how to do it when we found a place. We will definitely be on the canals again and, if possible, with the same boats.
