The Seafood & Sunset Cruise is an evening dining trip around Poole Harbour that pairs a seafood meal with the changing light of sunset over the water. It sails on 12 September 2026, setting a relaxed harbour cruise alongside food served on board, out on one of the largest natural harbours in the world, a short hop west of Bournemouth.
What to expect
The idea is a simple, sociable one — a gentle evening cruise with seafood enjoyed as you go, timed so the sky is at its best. As the boat makes its way across the harbour, you can take in the shoreline, the boats at anchor and the wider views towards the Purbeck hills, all while the sun drops low over the coastal waters. It makes for an easy, unhurried way to round off a late-summer day afloat, as much a scenic outing as a meal out.
Planning your visit
Poole Harbour sits on the western edge of the conurbation, reached easily from central Bournemouth by car, bus or train. Departure points, boarding times and what is included can vary, so confirm these on the operator’s official listing for the latest times, prices and tickets before you set out. Allow a little extra time to find the quay and board, and bring a warm layer for the breeze off the water once the sun has set.
