Red boats
What to do this Easter? Well if the weather’s kind and the water’s calm …. hire a boat !
A different tried and tested weekend fun!
The best way to get into York is to use the park and ride

The ‘Red Boats’ are situated on Kings Staith, you just turn up bob on your life jacket, and after a quick driving lesson… off you go!
The great thing about these boats is that the speed is restricted and the kids can steer them easily and independently which they love!
There’s lots to see on the river banks and the river itself. You have an hour to head whichever way you like getting a very different view of this beautiful city.
