Shire Cruisers - Sowerby Bridge

Discover a diverse view of awe-inspiring Yorkshire scenery, without the crowds, all based on a tranquil flowing river, where you may sail at your own relaxing pace. Three canals across the Pennines await exploration, where dramatic moorland and quaint country cottages create the most romantic atmosphere for an environmentally friendly break with a difference.

There’s an exciting discovery around each corner and our wide array of boats for short or extended durations allow it to be a flexible holiday to meet all your needs! Our boats are extremely easy to function and do not require a driving licence.

Feel free to bring bikes so you can have a break from the water to investigate the many fascinating cycle routes Yorkshire has to offer. We now also offer routes towards the Leeds and Liverpool Canal.

Whether you’re an experienced boater or a novice fancying a new challenge, we look forward to welcoming you for an enjoyable and memorable holiday.
