Keswick Launch Company
Derwent Water has an excellent boat service run by the Keswick Launch Company calling at seven landing stages around the lake: Ashness Gate, Lodore Falls, High Brandlehow, Low Brandlehow, Hawse End, Nichol End and back to Keswick. Boats leave every hour, clockwise and anticlockwise; single fares to each jetty are also available.
There are six daily boats from March to November, with a couple of extra afternoon sailings in high summer. There's also an evening cruise at 19:30 in summer, which includes a free glass of wine (one hour, May to September). There are only two daily sailings from November to March.
