About Windermere Lake Cruises at Bowness Pier
Bowness Pier is the busiest hub in the Windermere Lake Cruises network and offers the widest choice of sailings. Options include shorter circular cruises, routes linking Bowness with Ambleside and Lakeside, longer rover-style tickets and selected combined tickets with attractions around the lake.
The operator also hires self-drive motor boats and rowing boats from Bowness. Cruise timetables, routes, vessel accessibility and self-drive availability change by date, weather and water conditions. Check the live service status and timetable before travelling. Passengers with mobility requirements should confirm the intended vessel and pier access, while self-drive customers should read the age, capacity and safety conditions before booking.

Our local note
The essential Bowness visitor experience and a serious transport option, not just a sightseeing extra. Choose the route around the rest of your day rather than automatically buying the longest ticket.
