The only way to see Buffalo is from a sailor’s point of view!

Have you heard of the Erie Canal? Do you know what the Emerald Channel is? Do you know the folklore of Donnelly’s wall? How about Colonel Ward?

The only way to see Buffalo and truly learn about her past, present, and future is aboard one of our sightseeing cruises. Your tour begins on the Buffalo River across from the original lighthouse, built in 1833, and continues on through Lake Erie and the Black Rock canal. You will cruise under the Peace Bridge, one of the busiest border crossings in the world, pass by one of the oldest Yacht Clubs in the country and a boat house designed by one of the most world recognized architects, Frank Lloyd Wright.

And yes, we will answer all of those questions …

Buffalo Harbor Cruise offers Lunch Cruises on select dates only, please call for details.

CURRENT WATER LEVELS WILL DETERMINE IF WE ARE ABLE TO NAVIGATE THE BLACK ROCK LOCKS.  PLEASE CALL FOR CURRENT INFORMATION.  THE CAPTAIN WILL MAKE A DECISION AT DEPARTURE.

*NEW* CARRY-ON POLICY  IS IN EFFECT.  ONLY CLEAR STADIUM STYLE BAGS AND SMALL CLUTCHES (4.5×6″) WILL BE PERMITTED ON BOARD.  WE URGE YOU TO LEAVE OVERSIZED PURSES, TOTES, BACKPACKS, ETC AT HOME TO AVOID BOARDING DELAYS!
