What You Can Expect
Your 3 hour Sunset Cruise begins by heading to Lake Union where major companies are reshaping our city. We’ll leave the hustle and bustle behind as we set out on our leisurely cruise in the comfort of our beautiful custom and classic wooden yacht, the Rainbird. Take in the incredible views of the City as we travel east to Portage Bay and gaze at the magnificent Northwest light reflecting off beautiful St. Mark’s Cathedral, travel. While we travel through the Montlake Cut to Lake Washington, enjoy views of Husky Football Stadium, UW Campus, and snowcapped Cascade Mountains in the distance.
Upon our return to Lake Union we’ll travel with sailboats and large ships through two 100+ year-old drawbridges—the Montlake and University Bridges. We’ll get a close-up look at quintessential Seattle floating homes flanking the shores of the lake—including the one featured in the movie “Sleepless in Seattle,” and the oldest floating home, built over 115 years ago. After watching a breathtaking sunset we’ll return to Portage Bay Park as the lights of the City begin to twinkle.
