Gas Street Basin's still water with a narrowboat moored by a towpath, between old red-brick canal buildings

Gas Street Basin and the canals

  • Outdoors
  • Free
  • Romantic

Walk the towpaths from Gas Street Basin, with its narrowboats and old wharf buildings, past Brindleyplace and the Mailbox, or take a boat trip along the city's famous canals.

Why it's a good date: It's the prettiest side of the city, and there are canalside pubs all along the way. Go in the evening when the lights reflect in the water.
