Step aboard Coquette, a beautifully crafted Mahogany Thames River Launch by Salters of Oxford, built in 1919. Perfect for sightseeing on the Knysna Lagoon in any weather, Coquette offers comfortable seating for up to 14 passengers around two tables. One table is located in the bow, open to the sky, while the other is in the stern under a canopy with drop-down sides.

Originally powered by steam, Coquette exudes old-world romantic charm, making her an ideal choice for honeymoons and proposals (we proudly maintain a 100% success rate!). She is also perfect for intimate gatherings and celebrations with family and friends. Her classic and elegant lines glide smoothly through the water, ensuring a serene and enjoyable ride.

The views from Coquette are breathtaking, with the lagoon offering endless photo and video opportunities, especially during our popular Sunset Cruises. Don’t forget to bring your camera!

Experience the timeless elegance and charm of Coquette for your next special occasion or leisurely outing on the Knysna Lagoon.
