Cruise Puget Sound on a classic schooner from Pier 66
2 Hours
2-hr sail, Crew, Restrooms
Explore Seattle’s waterfront on a 2-hour sail aboard Bay Lady, a classic gaff-rigged schooner. Enjoy skyline views, relax on deck, or pitch in as the crew raises the sails.
Wheelchairs cannot be accommodated on board. Walkers, canes, and other mobility aids are welcome, but strollers and large items may need to remain ashore on busy sails.

Arrive at least 20 minutes before departure to check in.
Bring a jacket or warm layer (it can feel cooler and breezy on the water), plus sunscreen and sunglasses. Bring your ID if you plan to buy drinks from the onboard bar. Cash for crew tips is recommended.
You can bring a picnic. Outside alcohol is not allowed. Drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and light snacks 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.
Top tier birthday experience. Knowledgeable and friendly crew. Sailing tours aren’t something we did previously, but now we’re determined to come back every season!
