River Boat Cruise
Embark on a 2hr river boat cruise with Channel Kayaks/CK Marine, exploring the stunning Bath countryside along the tranquil River Avon, where adventure meets wellbeing.
Your private river cruise incorporates natural beauty, historic charm, and the unique thrill of navigating Victorian locks.
As your journey begins, the River Avon reveals a landscape of rolling green hills, wildflower-strewn meadows, and ancient woodlands. Pass through picturesque areas like the Shallows in Saltford, and admire landmarks such as the impressive Kelston Park, blending historic engineering with the natural beauty of the countryside.
One of the highlights of your cruise is the chance to navigate Kelston lock, a marvel of Victorian engineering, under the expert guidance of the crew, you can assist in the fascinating process of operating these historic mechanisms, feeling first-hand the connection to a bygone era of river transport. Alternatively, simply sit back and relax, letting the experienced crew take care of everything as you enjoy the tranquil views and the gentle rhythm of the boat.
Throughout the cruise, keep an eye out for the abundant wildlife that calls the River Avon home. Spot otters playing in the water and swans gliding gracefully, while you look for the brilliant flash of kingfishers, herons wading near the shore, and cormorants drying their wings. Above, buzzards, Kestrels and peregrine falcons soar in search of prey, completing the vibrant tapestry of nature.
Onboard, enjoy complimentary teas and coffees, or bring your own food and alcoholic beverages to create a truly personalised experience. Whether it’s a casual picnic or a celebratory toast with friends, the boat offers the perfect setting for relaxation and enjoyment.
