Raven's Ait, River island in Kingston upon Thames, England
Raven's Ait covers two acres in the Thames between Surbiton and Hampton Court Park, connected to the mainland by passenger ferry service.
The island served as headquarters for Kingston Rowing Club from 1858 to 1935 before becoming a training center for the Sea Cadet Corps.
The Thames-side venue maintains maritime education traditions through partnerships with the Royal Yachting Association and British Canoe Union for water activities.
Two passenger launches transport up to eighteen guests each between Queen's Promenade and the island for events throughout the year.
The Britannia Suite features bi-folding doors that merge indoor and outdoor spaces, offering direct views of the River Thames from two directions.
