Public cruises
Public cruises run 4 days a week throughout the season, with a range of tempting Food Cruises – cream tea, fish & bubbles, curry night, ploughman’s lunches, coffee & cake. There are also Chill-out Cruises, plus our Trail & Sail Cruises which combine a walk and a cruise. Take your pick!
From time to time we run Specials – for example School Holiday Cruises, cruises at local festivals, and our annual Walk & Glide weekend. Keep an eye open for these on social media and in the Specials booking area.
Charter cruises
Alternatively, enjoy having Electra all to yourselves! Short private charter bookings (2.5 hours) are available on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with slots in the morning or afternoon. Make your charter extra special with coffee and cakes, cream teas, nibbles trays and prosecco. In summer you can also enjoy the special half day charter with a ploughman’s lunch – book early to be sure of a slot.
If the online charter choices aren’t quite what you’re looking for, please contact us to discuss the option of a custom charter adapted to your specific requirements. Email electra@bmkwaterway.org

(£235)

Looking ahead
Our autumn/winter programme will be published in late August. We’ll be running Fish & Chip Friday lunchtime cruises then, and in the run-up to Christmas our popular Mulled Wine & Mince Pie cruises will be available both as public cruises and private charters.
Charity Discount available!
