Set sail from Islands Brygge. It's super easy.
GoBoat Harbor Tours
You can also join our guided tours in Copenhagen Harbor: GoBoat Harbor Tours. A social experience where you meet other people (max 9 per boat) on a classic canal tour of Copenhagen with a twist. We sail in electric designer boats while you learn about and see the sights of the harbor. Set sail from Islands Brygge.
GoBoat Cruise
Looking for an experience where luxury is paramount, then try GoBoat Cruise. You rent the entire boat, including a captain. Climb aboard for a few pleasant hours of "hygge" where you can see the city, jump into the water (where permitted), or just enjoy each other's company. Your captain will sail you wherever you want and take care of you throughout the trip. Set sail and be dropped off at various spots in the harbor.
