The charity making life better by water

Liverpool Canal Link

Liverpool Canal Link

A trip along the Liverpool Canal Link rewards visitors with easy access to one of Britain’s most cosmopolitan and dynamic cities.

Following a £22 million facelift, the canal link opened to boats in April 2009 and extends from Stanley Dock Lock Flight on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal via Albert Dock to the South Docks. This stretch of canal travels along the city's historic waterfront passing museums, restaurants and galleries making it a great option for a family day out. The canal also passes many listed buildings on its route into Liverpool including the photogenic Three Graces.
