Relax and Take a Cruise during your Dorset Holidays

When you stay at the Dorset holiday cottages, you are also near the port and cruise charters that are a great way to relax after a hectic tour of Dorset. The Dorset holiday cottages are close to the ports and other popular attractions in Dorset. You must book the Dorset holiday cottages especially when you are with your family on your Dorset holidays. Choose one that is pet-friendly so you can take your pets with you during your Dorset holidays. The Dorset holiday cottages also have self-catering facilities so you can prepare your own food while you are on your Dorset holidays but if you want to relax and not think about cooking, there are many dining options including having lunch on one of the many cruises available in Dorset. Here are some available Dorset cruises.

Brownsea Island Cruise

The Brownsea Island Cruise is one of the best cruises you can ever take during your Dorset holidays. You can either board the cruise from Bournemouth or board it from Swanage which are all accessible from your Dorset holiday cottages. The cruise takes you all the way to Brownsea Island and is a total of one and a half hours. When you get to Brownsea Island, you can choose to stay on board the cruiser or go down and explore the island. Brownsea Island is one exciting place to explore together with your family as there are many interesting things to see in this island too. There are many animals that your kids might enjoy seeing like the Sika deer, peacocks, red squirrels and other interesting wildlife. The island also has a castle and chapel that you might want to take a look at, aside from its beautiful surrounding landscape. If you feel hungry, there is a café in the island where you can get some snacks or have a filling lunch. Before boarding the vessel back to the mainland, do some exploration and see other delights in Brownsea Island.

BBQ Night Cruise

Try out the sunset cruise with music and barbeque on board a cruise. If your Dorset holidays fall on a Saturday, you can go on this Saturday night cruise that starts from Poole Quay. The cruise begins at 7:30 p.m. going from Poole Quay to Sandbanks and then to Brownsea Island and ends up at Old Harry Rocks before returning. Going on this cruise will allow you to relax as you savour the delicious BBQ and enjoy the music while watching a beautiful sunset. The cruise vessel features wide open decks where you can feel the cool breeze, washrooms for your convenience and an observation saloon that has a bar loaded with different drinks. Have some sizzling hot BBQ with your favourite bottle of beer. The whole cruise is 3 hours and will end at 10:30 p.m. This is a nice way to end the day before you call it a night and return to the comfort of your Dorset holiday cottages.
