What you can expect

As day turns to dusk, immerse yourself in an unforgettable San Francisco experience aboard our evening cruises, perfect for admiring the Bay Area’s most iconic sights. Whether embarking on the California Sunset Cruise or the San Francisco City Lights Cruise, you’ll have front-row seats to San Francisco’s beauty from the best vantage point: the Bay.

On the California Sunset Cruise, watch as the setting sun casts a golden glow over San Francisco’s distinctive skyline, highlighting the silhouettes of Coit Tower and the Transamerica Pyramid. Glide smoothly along the waterfront, passing the famous rock-bound Alcatraz Island and historic Angel Island, whose stories trace back through centuries. Further along, gaze across the Bay to see the charming towns of Tiburon and Sausalito, nestled against coastal hills with quaint, artistic touches and cosy harbour lights. The warm, shifting colours of the sky create a magical atmosphere as the city transitions from day to night.

For those sailing during winter months (November through March), the San Francisco City Lights Cruise showcases the city in an equally mesmerising way. With an earlier sunset, this twilight cruise allows you to admire San Francisco as it begins to sparkle under a blanket of evening lights. The city skyline comes alive with an enchanting glow, as lights from iconic landmarks like Fisherman’s Wharf and Ghirardelli Square reflect off the water, creating a perfect, postcard-worthy scene. The cruise takes you under the towering Golden Gate Bridge, where you can snap the perfect shot of this architectural marvel from below, beautifully lit against the night sky.

With each of these unique cruises, enjoy a relaxing and enchanting journey along San Francisco’s captivating waterfront, making memories that capture the essence of this beloved city by the Bay. Whether in the radiance of the setting sun or the shimmer of city lights, every evening on the Bay is one to remember.
