Description
Canal Map: UK Waterways is a free, fully offline map of the UK's connected navigable network — the canals and navigable rivers that narrowboats actually cruise. Everything is built into the app, so it keeps working with zero signal for days at a time, deep in a cutting or miles from anywhere.
No ads. No accounts. No tracking. No sign-up. Just the map.
THE MAP • Nationwide canals and navigable rivers, drawn clearly and rendered from your device. • Facilities with easy-to-read icons: locks, water points, Elsan / sanitary, pump-out, refuse disposal, pubs and moorings. • Numbered canal bridges and town, village and place names. • Tidal sections flagged as a hazard so you know where extra care is needed. • Optional aerial (satellite) imagery when you're online — the offline map still works without it. • Light and dark mode, plus a choice of colour themes.
PLAN YOUR CRUISE • On-device route planning: tap a start and a destination and get the distance, lock count and an estimated journey time (based on a typical cruising speed plus time per lock). • A detailed journey plan listing the waterways you travel and the facilities you pass along the way. • Save routes in the app to reuse them, or export a route as a GPX file — complete with any stoppages along the way and the date you planned it. • "Route here" straight from any facility you tap on the map.
STAY INFORMED • Live Canal & River Trust stoppages and navigation notices, refreshed daily, with an offline fallback so you always see the last known list. • Toggle to show planned / future (e.g. winter) stoppages too.
SEARCH & LOCATION • Search places and waterways, or use "near me" to find what's closest. • GPS follow-me shows where you are on the network (works offline).
KEEP A RECORD • A boat log for continuous cruisers: log your position with a nearest-place label and your own note, delete entries individually, and export the whole log as a CSV (opens anywhere) or GPX. Save exports straight to your device.
HELP & SAFETY • A built-in guide to staying safe and cruising considerately: life jackets, working locks, speed and wash, tunnels and bridges, tidal waters, mooring and more.
There's also a desktop map on the website if you'd rather plan on a bigger screen.
IMPORTANT Distances, lock counts and journey times are estimates, and map data can be incomplete or out of date. Always check current conditions, signage and official notices, and navigate responsibly — this app is a guide, not a substitute for your own judgement. Tidal waters are hazardous and need suitable experience and preparation.
