During quiet periods, especially in the Spring and Autumn, these times may vary. If in doubt please contact the Harbour Office. The trot boat may be cancelled due to adverse weather conditions at short notice, if in any doubt call the office first to find out.

Outside these hours, it may be possible to request the trot boat in advance at a cost of £10 per return journey. Please DO NOT rely on the trot boat service outside these hours.

The nearest “on-the-water” fuel service is at Gillingham Marina, approximately eight miles up the River Medway from Queenborough.  The fuel berth is located outside the marina, so there is no need to lock-in.

Alternatively, there are two garages in Queenborough approx one mile away which supply petrol, diesel and calor gas.
