Skuna Boats unveils a floating Autumn woodland for their world-class igloo boats
Floating fondue dining, seasonal cocktails and autumnal views? London’s cosiest boat experience is back in London’s Docklands.
Autumn in London just got a little more magical as Skuna Boats officially launched its third annual Igloo Boat season! Transforming their iconic domes into enchanted floating autumn woodlands. Gliding along historic waterways in Canary Wharf, the floating igloos offer a serene escape decked out in warm, rich tones, complete with elevated dining packages, warm festive drinks and your own Skuna skipper.
If you’re looking for something different to do with your friends, planning a birthday celebration or simply fancy treating yourself, Skuna Boats’ floating Igloo Boats might be just the ticket. Perfect for autumn and winter birthdays, families, parties and group outings for up to nine guests per boat.
Forget your usual dinner reservation. Imagine gliding through Canary Wharf’s historic waterways inside your very own heated igloo, surrounded by cosy foliage, twinkling decorations and delicious food, with an upcoming Afternoon Tea Menu.
It’s giving cosy autumn and winter luxury, without having to leave London!
Floating Fondue, Anyone?
The Igloo Boats have been transformed into enchanting floating woodlands, complete with burnt-orange leaves, rich burgundy colours, pumpkins and woodland-inspired decorations, and a signature sailor-esque scarecrow greeting new crew members on the pontoon.
And the best part? You can enjoy the scenery while tucking into something delicious.
Choose from:
Cheese and Chocolate Fondue:
Groups can indulge in standard or premium options for both savoury Cheese Fondue and sweet Chocolate Fondue.
Seasonal Cocktails:
A specially curated cocktail menu featuring warm spiced gingerbread gin, boozy hot chocolate and bar classics – expect festive flavours shaken and stirred for your celebrations.
Afternoon Tea:
An all-new floating Afternoon Tea package will make its debut this November, offering classic baked treats with a Skuna twist!
Gather Your Crew
Whether it’s a birthday, a festive get-together or simply an excuse to get everyone together, the Igloo Boats accommodate up to nine guests.
The transparent domes are heated and weather-protected, meaning you can enjoy London’s waterways without freezing in the process.
And with the boats sailing around Canary Wharf, it’s a chance to see a different side of London while enjoying a little luxury.
