Even before the trip started, service was great! I asked whether my 7-month old could come on board and they made sure to get him a brand new infant life vest. Once on board, both the captain and the steward were friendly and supportive. Prepare to embark on our 21+ party cruise aboard the Boomerang Pirate Ship, where even the most landlocked souls will find their sea legs in no time!
Navy Yard - Tikito
Nothing boosts team morale like a little vitamin D and vitamin Sea. With a fleet of Paddle Boats, Tiki Boats, Retro Boats, and Whitlow’s on Water, we offer the highest rated cruises and boat rentals in Georgetown, The Wharf, and Navy Yard. Over the past decade, the DC Waterfront scene has been completely transformed into one of the most vibrant communities in the District with a wide range of hospitality options and newly developed marinas. Spirit Cruises - The cruise includes a buffet, DJ, dancing, and monumental views. The Spirit of Washington departs from Southwest DC and can sail from National Harbor for an additional fee.
Paddle Club Cruises

Get ahead of the gameday traffic rush and take your tailgate to the water for Nationals games, DC United games, and DC Defenders games with cruises out of Navy Yard! Get rowdy and get dropped off right by the stadium for the ultimate fan experience. Take brunch to the next level with a boozy boaty brunch! Bring your favorite foods, pop some bottles, and sip on mimosas while you set the tone for your day. Because the dock runs a strict schedule for commercial ships, it’s necessary to arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled departure so the crew has time to check IDs, load up, and set sail.
DC Sail - Diamond Teague Park Piers
Themed cruises and special promotions are available seasonally for Valentine’s Day, Cherry Blossom season, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, 4th of July, New Year’s Eve and more. It’s BYOF (bring your own food), and you won’t break the bank when you grab something from the bar. Prices range from $4 for a Michelob Ultra to $8.50 for a canned cocktail. Passengers are allowed to bring their own wine or Champagne for an $8 uncorking fee.

Embrace the pirate spirit by swaggering between the starboard and portside, mingling with your fellow passengers, and having an absolute blast! Cruise beneath the sun, gaze at the sunset, or dance under the moonlight, grog in hand. Cruise along and see the sights at the Watergate Hotel, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, Key Bridge, and Georgetown University. During nighttime floats, see all the national monuments lit up. The boat also parties at the Three Sisters island, where Maher says tons of recreational boats anchor down. I went on a beautiful sunset cruise for a fundraiser.

Trade in rush hour for golden hour as you watch the sun set upon the monuments. Being on the river as much as we are, we can assure you that watching the sun’s golden glow against the Lincoln Memorial as the sun gradually retires for the night is a view that will simply never get old. Passengers will be picked up and dropped off on the docks at Washington Harbour right outside of Nick’s Riverside Grill. The dock runs a strict schedule for commercial vessels. As such, it is critical that all passengers arrive 15 minutes prior to their scheduled departure time so we can check ID’s, load up, and get underway. Traffic is always an issue in DC, so plan accordingly!
Whitlow’s on Water
Our boats are outfitted with built-in cup holders, coolers, USB charging stations, and large Bluetooth-enabled speakers for playing your preferred tunes. Chef and sommelier Troy Knapp makes Michelin-level menus on his luxury sailboat Cru Classé. Knapp also mans other Wharf vessels for parties of six or more, partnering with Nautiste to offer dining excursions with his catering company Curated. As the name implies, he envisions Cru Classé as a classy counterpart to other Potomac booze cruises and paddle boats filled with buckets of sponsored seltzer brands. Chartered cruises throughout the day last two to four hours and start at $324 per person.
Pendry on the Potomac
Individual tickets are also available, to “mix and mingle like you would in a normal bar,” he says. Sea Suite caters to Washington Nationals fans with a traffic-free cruise from Georgetown to the Yards Marina, docking just in time to walk over for the first pitch. “Tailgating on a tiki boat, it doesn’t get better than that,” he says.
Odyssey Cruises - The glass-enclosed ship offers panoramic views and the most upscale experience of the region’s cruises. Dinners are a three-course seated meal (buffet for larger groups). The cruise departs from Southwest DC and can sail from National Harbor for an additional fee. Great way to let your feet rest from all the walking. We even got to bring our pup & he loved it. Had a nice glass of wine and enjoyed the breeze from the water.
Docks are home to a surge of drinking vessels designed for every occasion, vibe, and price point. A returning line of retro motor boats are apparently the ticket to getting engaged, with seven proposals out on the water last year. Want to watch dolphins give birth on the Chesapeake this summer? And a fancy sailboat manned by a fine-dining chef pairs tasting menus with French wines. The sleek sailboat’s open cockpit accommodates up to six at a time.
The sunset cruises are highly recommended. Perfect views of the city and fun all around. Great way to meet new people in the area or have a fun night out in DC if you are visiting. Two TVs air “whatever people want to watch,” he says, which has included everything from March Madness to the Bachelorette (bachelorette parties are popular bookings, after all). As are corporate teams, birthdays, Whitlow’s fans, and even 50-year wedding anniversaries.
