The Lee Valley Boat Centre is a small, friendly business with the intention of giving everyone the chance of experiencing the River Lee. From electric powered boats, to small pedalos for up to 4 persons we aim to provide a means to travel along the River Lee at an affordable cost. The boats are available from the boat centre in Broxbourne. In the interests of safety, all children under the age of 16 years will have to wear a buoyancy aid which we supply and fit free of charge prior to boarding one of our boats . Dogs / pets are permitted on our day boats but unfortunately not on any of our small boats (electric or pedalos) . The boring part - Please read carefully our Terms & Conditions (Day Boats, Small Boats) of hire for whichever boat you are interested in hiring as they include information to keep everyone safe whilst on the river.

					  Visited here on a sunny Sunday, and it proved it be a lovely day out. 

The system they have in place for waiting for a boat to become available... read more is very good. We got there and within a couple of minutes were given a ticket and told a boat would be ready for us in around an hour and a half. We didn’t mind the wait, as there are plenty of nice walks around. By the time we’d been for a walk, had some lunch and then wondered back, we waited maybe a further 20 minutes until our ticket number was called. 

They have a very good process in place with regards to the current COVID-19 situation, so we both felt very safe. 

The guy clearly explained how to drive the boat and then we were on our way. 

Very peaceful and although quite a few other boats around, it feels very relaxing and picturesque. 

Would highly recommend here for a day out, I would just however recommend arriving earlier in the day so your wait isn’t too long.
