Sail Puget Sound as Seattle’s skyline glows at sunset
2 Hours
2-hour sail, seating, restrooms
Set sail on a traditional schooner as evening settles over Puget Sound. Relax on deck or join the crew in raising the sails as the route follows the wind.
All public sail tickets are final.
Arrive at least 20 minutes before departure to check in.
Bring a jacket or warm layer (it can get breezy and cooler at sunset), plus sunscreen and sunglasses. Bring your ID if you plan to buy drinks from the bar, and bring cash if you want to tip the crew.
Bring your own picnic if you’d like. Do not bring outside alcohol; drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) are available for purchase on board.

This sailing experience consistently delivers exactly what travelers hope for: a relaxing two-hour cruise around Elliott Bay with genuinely friendly crew members who make the trip special. The crew stands out repeatedly in reviews, with Clark, Daisy, Madison, Ben, and Molly earning individual shoutouts for their attentiveness and warm personalities. Guests love getting hands-on with raising the sails, and the views of the Seattle skyline are stunning. Drinks are available for purchase onboard, and you're welcome to bring your own food, though the marine-style bathroom requires typical sailboat etiquette. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between engaging and peaceful. You can chat with the knowledgeable crew or simply find a spot along the rails to soak in the scenery. Some visitors spot seals and sea lions, while others catch sunset views or glimpses of Mount Rainier on clear days. A few guests wished for more narration about the sights and history during the sail, and it's worth knowing the boat doesn't venture far out. Dress warmly since it gets chilly and windy on the water, even on nice days.
It was such a cool way to spend the 4th! The wind was especially good that day, and it was a great sail! That was the fastest one yet for me, and I think that was our 4-5th sail. The whole crew were fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable and just really cool people all around. Nick, Madison and Chad were awesome, and made everyone comfortable, happy and were really engaging with folks. Everyone heading home after looked super happy! I'm really glad we went, and I know we'll be back! Thank you all for everything and making it a wonderful evening!
