All cruises depart from and return to Poole Quay. 

 

Boats offer 3 or 4 hour charters (morning or afternoon) or longer day charters of 7 hours.

​

The departure times and prices vary according to which boat you choose. 

 

The Motor boats usually take a trip out either to Studland Bay or round the Islands of Poole Harbour, passing by the properties on the Sandbanks peninsula. 

​

On the way to Studland Bay you will see the stunning landmark “Old Harry Rocks” which is the start of the Jurassic Coast. 

​

We are pleased to offer watersports either as a stand alone activity or in addition to your charter. 

Please contact us for more information.

​

They will usually anchor in the Bay (or off Brownsea Island) where you can choose to swim or try paddle-boarding or just relax with a cold drink and a picnic. 

​

The Day Charter takes the same route and, weather permitting will go further out to Swanage. 

 

Koolau will sail round the islands of Poole Harbour also stopping for a time at anchor, usually off Brownsea Island. 

 

Whatever your size of group (even if it’s just the 2 of you), the boat will be exclusively yours as we do not offer any shared trips. 

​

All boats can take up to 12 guests  but in all cases this is a maximum (including children) and you are welcome have a smaller group. 

​

At Poole Boat Charters we have taken great care in choosing a selection of boats which we know operate to a very high standard, are well maintained and fully insured. 

 

They are individually owned, therefore attention to detail is assured.Your skipper will always be commercially qualified.
