Boston Harbor Cruises offers Boston’s only three-hour whale watch, which gets you to and from the whales in less time and gives you more time to watch. Researchers from the Whale Center of New England, the foremost authority on the region’s whale population, narrate all of the trips.

Boston Harbor Cruises also offers various excursions, which attract longtime residents and visitors alike. The sightseeing cruises are informative, entertaining, and relaxing. Take the USS Constitution Cruise and visit “Old Ironsides” in the Charlestown Navy Yard, or the Historic Sightseeing Cruise, which takes you to various Boston landmarks in the inner and outer harbor.
