In partnership with the New England Aquarium, Boston Harbor Cruises' high-speed catamarans offer the fastest, most comfortable way to view the ocean’s most fascinating and magnificent creatures. Our destination is Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary, a rich feeding ground for whales, dolphins, sea birds and other marine life. This area is home to several kinds of large whales, including humpbacks, finbacks, minkes, as well as pilot whales and the critically-endangered right whales. White-sided dolphins often also make an appearance.
Onboard, naturalists, trained by the New England Aquarium, share their knowledge about the behavior, conservation status and migration patterns of whales, dolphins and sea birds.
Our catamarans feature 3 outside decks for optimum viewing. Inside you’ll find climate-controlled cabin space with cushioned seating, tables, state-of-the-art sound and video systems, a New England Aquarium Education Station, and a galley offering food and beverages for purchase.
