Push off from Woodbridge and follow the Deben — a tidal river marked by bends, buoys and busy boatyards.

Our cruises run from the quay at Robertsons Boatyard and cruise steadily on with open views, offering time to take in the working river.

The yards, the moorings, the wildlife and the long, calm stretches that make the river Deben such a distinctive waterway. A fantastic way for visitors, families, or anyone to see Woodbridge from the water!

Robertsons Boatyard sits on one of the most distinctive stretches of the River Deben.

Where the boatyard works, and you can too.
A Co-Working space shaped by the river instead of a boardroom.

The yard is active daily — boats being repaired, crews moving through, river trips heading out — all visible from a fully serviced, comfy co‑working space with clear views across the Deben to the National Trust's Sutton Hoo.
