A 1 hour 45 minute boat trip! There were 8 of us. A fantastic time; the captain stopped us in front of the monuments for photos. We brought our own snacks and drinks. Bluetooth speakers were available so we could play our own music! There was a toilet on board.
Highly recommended!

Went on this tour for my friend’s 30th birthday and had a great time. The two hosts/drivers were incredibly friendly and made sure we were well taken care of. The boat felt safe and the views were great. This was the first time I ever took a tour on the Waterfront. Would definitely recommend!

What an amazing experience with Sea Suite Cruises! They did an incredible job hosting our birthday celebration and made the entire event feel special from start to finish. The atmosphere was beautiful, the staff was friendly and professional, and everything was handled with great care.

This is a very accessible way to enjoy the Potomac with a fun, knowledgeable crew and staff. Ticket includes a free beverage and is a great deal. We had the best time, made friends, learned new facts about DC, and enjoyed live music on land and playlists on the pontoon. Thank you!

We had such a great experience with Sea Suite Cruises! We went out with a group of close friends, and it was the perfect setting to catch up, relax, have a good time, and enjoy some beautiful views of DC and Virginia from the river.
The staff were excellent! They were kind, helpful, and very attentive throughout the cruise. They also did a great job creating a fun, intimate atmosphere with good music that allowed us to just enjoy being together.
It turned into such a fun and memorable afternoon with friends, and we came away with some great memories. If you’re looking for something different to do in the DC area—whether with friends, for a celebration, or just to enjoy the city from a different perspective—I definitely recommend Sea Suite Cruises. We had a blast and would absolutely do it again!
Booze Cruises in Washington DC
These social, nautical adventures are the perfect way for friends, families, and colleagues to sip, sail, and celebrate on the water! Bring your favorite wine, beer, hard seltzer, or canned cocktail on our BYOB party boats* OR purchase refreshing beverages from our on-boat bar on bartended cruises. Most cruises are also BYOF (bring your own food)! We’ve had everything from small snacks to full spreads so pack a homemade meal or bring your favorite takeout. Catered cruises with Whitlow’s on Water and Cantina Cruises are not BYOF, but offer a great selection of delicious treats!
*We do NOT allow bottles of hard liquor on BYOB cruises.
Team Building & Corporate Events
Nothing boosts team morale like a little vitamin D and vitamin Sea. Celebrate a milestone, bring a virtual team together, break off from a big conference or convention, or just get to know your team better. Take a corporate team-building cruise and sip, socialize, and sail through the District.
Potomac River Night & Sunset Cruises
Sunset Cruises
Trade in rush hour for golden hour as you watch the sun set upon the monuments. Being on the river as much as we are, we can assure you that watching the sun’s golden glow against the Lincoln Memorial as the sun gradually retires for the night is a view that will simply never get old.
Night Cruises
Seeing the monuments lit up at night while you and your crew light up the night is a truly one-of-a-kind DC nightlife experience. All of our boats are equipped with party lighting so when the sun goes down, the fun heats up! Enjoy the cool summer air and the glow of the city on the water to make any night a midsummer night’s dream.
Navy Yard Sports Sailgates
Get ahead of the gameday traffic rush and take your tailgate to the water for Nationals games, DC United games, and DC Defenders games with cruises out of Navy Yard! Get rowdy and get dropped off right by the stadium for the ultimate fan experience.
DC Sightseeing Boat Tours
Soak in the sunshine and some of DC’s most monumental views on a private boat cruise. During our cruises, passengers will get stunning views of Georgetown, the Kennedy Center, the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, the Pentagon, and the United States Capitol!
Cherry Blossom Boat Tours in DC
Blossoms up! We offer river cruises and boat tours to see the Cherry Blossoms from the Potomac with a drink in hand, avoiding the crowds. Skip the crowds and traffic, enjoy a few of your favorite drinks, and party your way to the petals while your skipper gets you up close and personal with DC’s most iconic trees.
Happy Hour, Brunch & Dinner Cruises
Brunch Cruises on the Potomac
Take brunch to the next level with a boozy boaty brunch! Bring your favorite foods, pop some bottles, and sip on mimosas while you set the tone for your day.
Dinner Cruises in Washington DC
Elevate your evening with a dinner cruise under the stars! Bring along your favorite cuisine, uncork the wine and indulge as you glide through the night, creating unforgettable moments under the moonlit sky.
DC Happy Hour Cruises
On Monday-Thursday each week, happy hour has no time limit on our boats. We offer happy hour pricing during the week so we can guarantee you that these are some of the best happy hour prices in DC. Even further, some of our boats offer the option to BYOB! Don’t get me wrong, we love a good rooftop or waterfront bar, but nothing compares to being on your own private floating bar where you can play your music surrounded only by your friends.
Birthday & Bachelor(ette) Parties
Bachelorette/Bachelor Parties
Get nauti before you tie the knot! Our bachelorette party boats are the perfect size for any wedding party and have a wide range of options to either BYOB or purchase drink packages on board. The backdrop of the monuments from the water creates the perfect picture-worthy moments. You’ll always remember your final sail before the veil!
Birthday Parties
Party buses are cool and all but take your special day to the next level this year with a birthday party river cruise. Blast your own playlist, enjoy drinks with friends and family, and get the perfect picture in front of the monuments for a shameless HBD-to-me post.
