About this Experience

What you’ll do:

Step aboard your own private boat charter in Hampton Bays and spend the next two hours cruising the saltwater bays and waterways of the Hamptons with your crew.

  • Cruise the East End Waterways - Head out from the docks behind Cowfish and wind through Hampton Bays’ bays and coastline.

  • Set the Soundtrack - Play your own music onboard and keep the energy going the whole ride.

  • Soak Up the Views - Take in waterfront homes, open bay air, and golden-hour light made for photos.

  • Add Food and Drinks - Bring your own or add catering from Cowfish or RUMBA to build out the celebration.

  • Customize with Add-ons - Deck out the boat with a Yeti cooler or a giant float to match your group’s vibe.

It’s two hours of open water and easy logistics, built around whatever your group is celebrating.

Why we love it for your group celebration:

  • Private Charter - The boat is yours for the full trip, no strangers, no shared tickets.

  • Flexible for Any Occasion - Works for bachelorette parties, bachelor parties, birthdays, and pre-wedding weekends.

  • Local Crew - An experienced Hampton Bays crew runs the boat so your group can just enjoy the ride.

  • Easy Add-ons - A Yeti cooler, giant float, or catering can be added with no extra planning on your end.

  • Photo-Ready Scenery - Bay views and golden-hour light give your group plenty of camera-roll moments.
