Overview

This 1.5-hour catamaran cruise takes place on the San Francisco Bay as the sun sets. The boat departs from Pier 39, where passengers can see a group of sea lions before boarding. The cruise follows a route under the Golden Gate Bridge and passes by Alcatraz Island while guests look out for sea lions and watch the city skyline as evening approaches. The cruise uses either a 55-foot or 65-foot Adventure Cat catamaran. Both vessels feature a 360-degree protected viewing area for those who prefer shelter from the wind, as well as open canvas trampoline nets that allow guests to enjoy the ocean air and unobstructed views. The smaller 47-passenger boat carries up to 40 passengers, while the larger 90-passenger vessel limits capacity to 76 for comfort. One complimentary drink is included per person, with options of beer, wine, or a non-alcoholic beverage. Additional drinks and food are available for purchase on board. The company does not provide hotel pickup or drop-off, and gratuities are not included in the price.
