Navy Yard Pontoon Paddle Boat Booze Cruises
Pricing | Cruise Details | Food & Drinks | Directions
Book a private boat for 8-16 people! Not sure how many people? Book for 8 now and add additional people at any time leading up to your cruise! If you’re attending a game or concert at Nats Park or Audi Field, take your tailgate to the next level with a Sailgate from the Yards Marina!
On the route towards the Wharf, passengers can enjoy stunning views of the Washington Monument, the Titanic Memorial, the National War College, Old Town Alexandria from afar, planes landing at Reagan National Airport, the United States Capitol, the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge, the Francis Case Memorial Bridge, Audi Field, Nationals Park, and all of the bustling new development at the Wharf and Navy Yard. About 50 minutes into the 2 hour cruise, we’ll stop at Market Pier at the Wharf so passengers can use the restroom, grab a quick drink or a shot at Tiki TNT, and then we’ll load back up and return to Navy Yard.
Our cruises from Navy Yard are perfect for birthday parties, corporate outings, sightseeing, bachelor/bachelorette parties, seeing the Cherry Blossoms, “sailgates” to take your tailgate for Nats games, DC Defenders games, or DC United games to the next level, or just getting out on the water from DC’s hottest new waterfront destination! Navy Yard is home to an expansive list of bars, wineries, restaurants, stadiums, breweries and activities to choose from prior to and following the cruise, so your group can enjoy a full day of waterfront activities without leaving the city.

Food & Drink Policies
All Navy Yard pontoon paddle boat party cruises are now BYOB in addition to offering alcohol for purchase on board! So passengers can sip and set sail with their drink(s) of choice! Passengers are empowered to drink whatever beer, wine, seltzer, or canned cocktail (such as Cutwater Spirits) they fancy. The one exception to this is that we do not allow bottles of hard liquor (I know – we wish we could but unfortunately we can’t, sorry!). We will have small snacks such as chips available for purchase, but passengers are welcome to bring their own food (BYOF) to enjoy their cruise!
Drink Package Add-On*
Additional $20/Person: Includes all beer, seltzers, and ready-to-drink cocktails (see menu below). Additionally, uncorking fees for bottles of wine and champagne will be waived for groups who purchase all-inclusive tickets.
