Scheduled boat trips

Scheduled canal boat trips

Trips operate daily through the summer on board trip boat Kingfisher, crewed by our trained volunteers. Sailings depart from and return to, the Basin in Chichester and the trips last 75 minutes (round trip). There are usually two sailings a day, with times dependent on boat and crew availability, so please see booking details below for daily sailing times.

It is easiest to book online, or you can pop into the café or call our friendly team on 01243 771363. Advance booking is advisable, although same day tickets may be available. For boat trip queries, you can email us at boxoffice@nullchichestercanal.com

Babies under 2 are free but must be included in the seating numbers.

Customers are reminded that:

• We welcome diversity and as far as possible provide equality of opportunity for customers, volunteers and staff.
• The MCA regulates our vessels and crew to ensure we operate to the highest water safety standards. Typically, our boats can take a maximum of two wheelchairs on Richmond and one on Kingfisher. Therefore, if your party requires more than this facility, please contact us by phone or email so that we can jointly plan an experience that will fully benefit your party.
• Both boats have lifts for passengers with impaired mobility or requiring wheelchair access. There is a ramp to the pontoon.
• When booking please advise us of any special requirements for your trip.
• Toilet facilities are available on-site before you board the boat. Both boats have toilet facilities on board; the facility on Kingfisher is accessible to wheelchair users.
