Blue Otter Boats

Blue Otter Boats offers bespoke self-drive holidays for 3 nights or more. Explore England's canal network from Skipton and Wootton Wawen. Experienced boaters will enjoy our narrowboats fitted out as a floating home you may never want to leave!

Blue Otter Narrowboats is a small, family-run bespoke narrowboat hire company in the making.

Based in Skipton on the Leeds to Liverpool canal, it is our objective to put you first and ensure you enjoy the canals with a holiday to remember and a boat you won’t easily forget.

When you take the helm of Blue Otter and discover the canal life running through Yorkshire and Lancashire, a sense of freedom and exploration will overwhelm you. As you drift gently around each bend and under every bridge a new delight appears.

Whether you’re looking for a holiday with a difference or just want to unwind and take life at a more tranquil pace, our luxury bespoke narrowboat provides a level of comfort and convenience for a memorable boutique getaway.
