Route

  1. 1
    From Islands Brygge into the main channel

    Steer your own boat from Islands Brygge toward Sydhavnen or north past the Opera House and Amalienborg. The main channel offers views of sights including Langebro, Blox, the Black Diamond, Nyhavn, Papirøen and the Royal Danish Playhouse.

  2. 2
    Stay in the main channel

    The Pod is too tall for the bridges in Frederiksholms Canal and Christianshavn Canal, so these canals are off limits. Follow the printed or digital map and finish at Islands Brygge, where you started.

Full description

GoBoat Pod gives you your own covered space on the water. Enjoy Copenhagen Harbor through large panoramic windows, sheltered from rain and wind. Based on the classic GoBoat, the Pod has a transparent cover that makes it a cozy choice for the winter season.

 

Start at Islands Brygge, where the team gives you instructions before departure. Unzip the side of the Pod to board, then close it before setting off. You steer the boat yourself, with no boating license or previous experience needed. The quiet electric motor lets conversation flow as you cruise.

 

There is room for eight people in total, including children and babies. Dogs are welcome too. It is a relaxed outing for friends, families, a date or an afternoon after work. Choose a one- or two-hour trip.

 

From Islands Brygge, head into the main harbor channel toward Sydhavnen or north past the Opera House and Amalienborg. Along the way, you can see sights such as Langebro, Blox, the Black Diamond, Kyssebroen, Nyhavn, Papirøen, the Royal Danish Playhouse and Ofelia Plads. Frederiksholms Canal and Christianshavn Canal are off limits because their bridges are too low for the covered boat.

 

A printed map is provided on board, and a digital map is available too. Blankets, cushions, life jackets for everyone and cozy lighting are included. Cruise at a gentle pace of about three knots, or 5–7 km/h, and return to the same place you departed from.

 

Bring your own food and drinks, or buy drinks, snacks and wine in the shop before departure. Open-faced sandwiches and sandwiches are offered in partnership with TS Smørrebrød. In November and December, Danish æbleskiver and mulled wine can be added through Winter Island. You can also add GoBoat Challenge, a friendly competition involving quizzes, humming and mime.
