What are boat trips?

Boat trips are outings that let you take in a lake, a river or a stretch of coast at an easy pace.

You get the landscape, the fresh air and a view of the country you cannot have from land.

They can be short tours, trips along the shore or a run out at sunset.

They suit any age and need no experience of boats.
