Days Out Are For Dogs Too

Sabrina Boat in Shrewsbury turns the River Severn into the main event, running daily boat trips during the season along with evening cruises, themed sailings, afternoon tea options and private hire. Dogs are welcome on board, which makes this a useful way to see the town from the water without leaving anyone on the towpath.
The onboard commentary and relaxed pace make it feel like an easy way to take in Shrewsbury from a different angle without doing all the legwork yourself. The range goes well beyond a simple sightseeing hop, so there's plenty of choice depending on how much time and appetite for themed cruising you're working with.
Great for a low-effort, high-scenery detour when walking the whole river loop suddenly feels a bit ambitious. Expect scenic cruising, plenty to look at and a dog taking their sightseeing responsibilities extremely seriously.
Good to know:
Water bowls available
Free treats available
Doggy menu available
Dog Policy:
Dogs are welcome on board the middle or top deck, so nobody needs to wait on the towpath while everyone else enjoys the river views. Water bowls are available if your dog decides sightseeing is thirsty work.
