ISLAND SCENE

Meet Island Scene

Say hello to Island Scene – the baby of our fleet but definitely the cutest of the three. Built for smooth sailing and great views, she’s a firm favourite with locals and visitors alike, offering calm, comfortable cruises around the harbour’s stunning islands and coastline during the day and doing our sunset & fish & chips cruises in the evenings.

With her open top deck, inside saloon with a licensed bar, and her famously friendly crew, Island Scene is designed for relaxed exploration. She regularly sails to view the amazing sights in the harbour including Brownsea Island, Sandbanks, and Studland Bay – showing off the best of the Europe’s largest natural harbour along the way.

But what makes her really special? The people who run the show…

”I once forgot to turn off the PA mic after a commentary. Entire top deck heard me mutter ‘well, that went alright, considering I made most of it up. Still got a round of applause though!” – Captain Dave

Of course our commentary is actually factual (unlike Dave’s) and it is also a little humerous!

So whether you’re boarding for a scenic harbour trip or booking her out for a sunset cruise, Island Scene & her fabulous crew are ready to welcome you aboard.
