Set out from Fisherman’s Wharf and into San Francisco Bay, admiring the picturesque waterfront sights that provide the backdrop to the 2013 America’s Cup.
This bay cruise allows you to follow the intensity of the America's Cup races from the water, taking in views of the city and enjoying refreshments all the while. Your cruise takes place during races, but depending on the day of your cruise, the weather or the race itself, views of the race cannot be guaranteed. Rest assured, however, that you’ll still enjoy the excitement of the festivities, the lively atmosphere and San Francisco’s world-famous attractions.
Sail under both the Golden Gate Bridge and Bay Bridge, past Treasure Island, near AT&T Park (home to the San Francisco Giants), and around Alcatraz Island and its notorious prison. While you cruise, listen to interesting commentary about the city’s architecture, culture and natural history; your captain will also make announcements about the ongoing race.
Snap photos and admire views from the outdoor decks, or take a break at an indoor table, enjoying your complimentary box lunch, which includes a sandwich, chips and cookie, and sipping on a drink (two drink tickets are included toward soda, beer, wine or signature cocktails). An onboard snack bar is available for additional food and drinks (own expense). Keep the sun out of your eyes with a complimentary Red and White Fleet cap so you don't miss a minute of the action.
After 90 minutes of cruising San Francisco Bay amid the America’s Cup festivities, return to the pier at Fisherman’s Wharf.
