A Great Way to See Mystic

Mystic Harbor Cruises offers a unique and exciting way to discover our town and its surroundings. These two-hour guided tours showcase many local landmarks, including the Mystic Seaport, the Bascule Bridge, Masons Island, and even Ran and Fishers Island in New York. Sit back and relax as your guide shows you around. We highly recommend bringing your camera to capture the gorgeous scenery!

A Cruise Full of History

Mystic Harbor Cruises are anchored in history, quite literally. Prudence, a steamboat, is one of the few coast steamers still in operation. She was launched in 1911 and remains the record breaker for the longest running ship in the United States. In fact, she has had more than two million riders to this day!

Patience is her exact replica and welcomes up to 130 passengers for cruises, private events, and dinners. Celebrate your birthday with a magical cruise for example! They offer catering and entertainment upon request, so don’t hesitate to contact them to have more information.

Schedule and Rates

Public cruises are available from May to October on first-come, first-served basis. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket office or by phone at (860) 389-1969.
