Private charter, licensed captain
Set sail at sunset on a private charter in New York Harbor and take in skyline views from the water. Bring your own snacks and drinks and enjoy a relaxed cruise with an experienced, licensed captain.
Maximum of 6 guests per charter. Ages 5+ are recommended; children under 2 are not recommended but are welcome. Gratuity is only included if you added it during checkout.
Your charter will be cancelled if the weather is inclement, as determined only by the captain. Examples include thunderstorms, excessive winds, and rainstorms. Your charter will still occur in light rain, cloudy skies, temperature extremes, humidity, and small craft warnings. Charters are not rescheduled due to weather forecasts.
Arrive 15 minutes before your charter start time.
Dress for safety, comfort, and weather. In spring and fall, wear layers and bring a jacket or sweatshirt. In summer, bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Wear soft-soled shoes (boat shoes or sneakers); if you wear hard-soled shoes or high heels, you will be asked to go barefoot for safety.
Yes. Bring your own food and drinks (including alcoholic and non-alcoholic). Plan for snacks and easy-to-eat items like sandwiches; the boat does not have a formal table.

Sailing around New York Harbor with this crew has become a go-to experience for visitors and locals alike, with many guests returning year after year. The captains, including Mike, Thomas, Kara, Ken, and Rick, consistently earn praise for being warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. First mates like Natasha, Claudia, and Daniel add to the welcoming atmosphere, making everyone feel at home from the moment they step aboard. The sailboat itself seems to be a big part of the appeal. Guests frequently note how different it feels compared to a typical ferry or motorboat tour, especially during sunset when the views of the Manhattan skyline and Statue of Liberty are at their best. The booking process also gets high marks, with a responsive office team that makes planning easy. One pattern worth noting is that several guests wished they had booked the three-hour option rather than two, so it may be worth considering the longer sail if your schedule allows.
We had a wonderful experience with Captain Thomas on our sunset cruise. There were 5 of us on board and we all enjoyed it throughly. It was the most memorable part of our trip!
