🐾 Dogs Onboard! 🐾 We understand that a dog is a man/woman’s best friend, and what’s better than having your furry companion with you on your boating adventure? Many of you have been curious about whether dogs are welcome on our self-drive hire boats, and we’re happy to say YES! 🙌

To ensure that both you and your dog have a fantastic time, we kindly ask that your pup is very accustomed to boating and has their own life jacket. Safety first, always! If your dog meets these criteria, they are more than welcome to join the fun onboard.

Please note that if your loyal friend has an accident on the boat, there will be a fine for cleanup as we want to maintain a fresh environment for all. Additionally, remember that your dog counts as a member of the boat’s occupancy, with a maximum of 6 passengers per boat.

So grab your dog’s life jacket, pack those doggy snacks, and come create unforgettable memories on the water with your four-legged companion! 🚤🐶💙

“2 hour boat ride around Brownsea Island:
July 2024 • Family
We hired a boat for 2 hours for £100. We are a family of 4 (2 adults 2 children). We’ve never hired a boat before so it was a little scary and exciting at the same time. The booking process was straight forward. We started with a safety briefing and were instructed on how to use the boat.
We took a leisurely tour around Brownsea Island and very much enjoyed it and it’s something we would definitely do again.”

Then, as we were on our way to our second activity option the lovely lady from Red Boat rang us to say that she would try and get a boat for us. Anyhoo the next thing we know is that we’re in a boat and having a lovely time. THANK YOU so much for making our day # # #"
