About this Experience

What you’ll do:

Boating in Boston has never been more of a party! Take a public or private cruise through the Boston Harbor on the city’s most lively pedal boat, equipped with room for 20 to 26 people and expansive space to hang out — including a pedal, lounge, and explore area and bathrooms aboard. Plus, fully customize your ride with decor, food, drinks, and music. It couldn’t be easier to get out on the water!


Why we love it for your party:

  • BYOB - bring your own beverages, food, and music. We provide coolers with ice
  • Pedal (or don’t) - our passengers typically pedal for 5 min. then socialize and relax for the remaining 85 min.
  • Up-close views - catch amazing points of interest and historic sites up close
  • Personalize your party - pre-game for a dinner near our docking location


Additional information:

  • An 18% gratuity will be included in the final price
  • All public cruises depart from Pier 6 in Charlestown — upon request, private charters can change their boarding location to other waterfront locations in East Boston, the Seaport District, or the North End
