The festive season is here, and what better way to celebrate than with a Christmas Cruise along London’s Regent’s Canal? Run by Islington Boat Club, this seasonal experience is perfect for families, friends, and anyone who wants to get into the holiday spirit.

A Festive Adventure on the Water

Step aboard our fully enclosed narrowboat for a cosy and magical journey along the canal. Skipper Santa and his Elf will guide you through the sights of Islington, spreading festive cheer along the way.

Every passenger can enjoy:

A complimentary hot chocolate with marshmallows
A mince pie or gingerbread biscuit
Children’s Christmas goody bags, delivered by Santa’s Elf during the cruise

The boat leaves from and returns to Islington Boat Club, 16-34 Graham Street, N1 8JX, making it easy to join this festive adventure.
