A sunset cruise from Fan Pier Marina on a classic Boston tall ship offers a relaxed way to see Boston from the water. After the sails are raised, you’ll move away from the city bustle and settle in to enjoy skyline views as they sparkle in the twilight. The atmosphere is laid-back, giving you time to chat, unwind and take photos as the city lights come on.

Drinks are available onboard for purchase by cash, credit or Apple Pay, with a menu that typically includes several beers brewed in Boston and cocktails made with locally distilled spirits. You are welcome to bring snacks or a bag lunch, but please note coolers and outside beverages are not allowed. There’s no formal narration during public sails, though the captain and crew will happily answer questions and share their knowledge of local landmarks and history along the way.
