Take the ultimate sunset cruise, California-style! Relax as you enjoy amazing views of San Francisco and a hearty appetizer buffet from the famous Boudin Bakery during this casual two-hour cruise of San Francisco Bay.

With cool background music and live commentary by the captain, this cruise is a wonderful way to explore San Francisco Bay at twilight.

As the sun begins to set over the Marin Headlands, you'll cruise past Alcatraz, Angel Island and the shorelines of Tiburon, Belvedere and Sausalito. Watch the sun setting over the Pacific Ocean as you sail west toward the Golden Gate Bridge. On your way back to Fisherman’s Wharf you'll see many more famous sights, including the Presidio, the Marina District and Fort Mason.

During the cruise, enjoy petite sandwiches, antipasti, seasonal fruits and salads, cheeses, vegetables, pizza breadsticks, freshly baked cookies, and a complimentary beverage.

A full bar with drinks and merchandise is available aboard. All cruise vessels offer indoor and outdoor seating, and restrooms. There is no assigned seating or formal dress required – come as you are for an evening of relaxed sunset sailing! Vessels operate on biodiesel – a renewable energy source.
