A Festive Throwback and a Look Ahead to Christmas on the Water
As the autumn sunshine still glistens across Poole Harbour, behind the scenes we’re already donning our Santa hats and diving headfirst into winter season planning. And in doing so… we’ve stumbled across this absolute festive throwback of Fortuna all decked out for Christmas.
And wow — did she sleigh.
With her twinkly lights, Christmas garlands, and that magical glow only Poole Harbour at dusk can deliver, Fortuna last December was nothing short of a floating festive wonderland. Think mulled wine on deck, Mariah on the speakers, and crew in full elf mode. Honestly, if you haven’t experienced Christmas on the water — you’re missing out.
So what’s coming this winter?
Our Christmas cruises are getting a little extra sparkle this year. Whether it’s a festive office do, a family celebration with a difference, or just a good excuse to wear your best Christmas jumper and sip prosecco while cruising past Brownsea — we’ve got you.
Expect:
🎄 Cosy indoor spaces with festive décor
🍷 Seasonal drinks from the bar (hello mulled everything)
🎶 Christmas tunes and good vibes
✨ And of course, Poole Harbour lit up like a snow globe
We’ll be running both private Christmas party bookings and ticketed festive cruises, and trust us — they’re going to go faster than mince pies at a staff buffet.
