Riviera Cruises

AMAZING sunset cruise with Captain Tom and First Mate Hunter. My husband and I have spent LOTS of money on tourist activities over the years but THIS boat tour is at the top of our list for awesome, unforgettable experiences. Highly recommend if you want gorgeous scenery and exquisite hospitality from the crew.

From booking to saying farewell, this experience was all I had hoped for and more! I booked the three hour cruise as a gift to my parents and we had a blast! I almost switched our time because the forecast called for clouds but I am happy we didn’t. the first half was overcast but that made it easy to see the sights along the way and on the way back, the sun broke through and we got a perfect sunset. It was perfect conditions. The website recommends bringing a jacket which I would absolutely agree with (and maybe a blanket if you go on a cool or overcast day) and you can bring snacks and drinks in board. We opted not to—I kind of wish we had but we were also enthralled by the experience that we didn’t really notice. Captain Tom and his first mate Tanner were hospitable, professional yet laid back, and provided loads of interesting commentary and conversation along the way while also giving us time to take in the views. Seeing a wild amount of harbor seals taking in the sun on the way back, spotting a porpoise, and gorgeous views of Narrows bridge were just a few of the highlights for me. I also love that this is a family business that Captain Tom described as a “privilege” and “a labor of love”. I can’t wait to go back for another incredible cruise and hopefully bring some friends!

We went on a sunset cruise with the whole extended family. We had our 3 year old and a 9 year old and 4 year niece and nephew along with grandparents. Reasonably priced (for all 9 of us it was under $500), room to spread out, and a bathroom for the sunset cruise. My son was fascinated with the pedal flush. Crew was kind, courteous, helpful and knowledgeable. We took some fantastic photos. The water was so calm it looked like glass and the views were amazing. We saw porpoise, seals, water fowl, and a bald eagle. I would definitely do it again.

We enjoyed the summer cruise and today the two hour fall colors sunset cruise. Captain Tom is very friendly and adds a fun and informative narrative along the way. We’ll be back again next season.

This cruise was very nice great narrating by Capt Tom. Beautiful scenery, cruise out under the Narrows Bridge. Very interesting, very relaxing and enjoyable. We were lucky enough to see a few Sea Lions, a humpback and a few other aminals, lol. Well worth your time and $$. Loved it.
