A cruise on Black Pearl is perfect for all occasions, be it a birthday party or just to take friends and family out on the water for a memorable cruise. The canals offer a much gentler pace than most of us are used to, and it’s a great way to unwind after a hectic day at work – there’s nothing nicer than going boating on a summer’s evening. After the brightness of the day, the dusk melting into the dark is one of the most magical of times to be afloat. We hope that while you are on board that you will feel at home.

There is a small kitchen where food may be warmed or hot drinks made, a fridge to cool your drinks. Although we do not provide catering, you are welcome to bring along your own food and drinks (including sensible amounts of alcohol!). Should the weather turn chilly, the boat can be kept warm and toasty with the traditional real coal stove.
