Q&A

Q: How flexible is the rescheduling policy for the sail?

A: You can typically reschedule up to 24 hours before your sail. Just reach out to Newport Classic Cruises directly, and they’ll assist you. It's a good idea to check the specific terms on their website too, just to be sure. I've done this before and they were super flexible, which was great!

Q: What's the age limit for kids on this sailing experience?

A: There’s technically no age limit, but it’s best for kids who are at least 5 years old. They’ll enjoy the sights and not get too restless. Just keep in mind that it can get a bit rocky sometimes, so if you have very young ones, just be prepared for that. The crew is great with kids, though!

Q: Do you need to dress up for this sailing experience?

A: Nope! Dress comfortably and casually. Think summer clothes, but definitely bring a light jacket or sweater for when the sun goes down. Slip-on shoes are great too since it can get a bit wet on deck. Enjoy yourself and relax!

Thinking of gifting the Newport Afternoon Sightseeing Sail! Any thoughts?

I’m considering this for my parents’ anniversary. They love the water and Newport is one of their favorite spots! The Schooner Madeleine looks beautiful, and I love that they can bring snacks. Do you think 1.5 hours is enough time? Also, how's the view of the Newport Bridge from the water?

Just got back from the Newport Afternoon Sightseeing Sail!

Had an amazing time on the sail! The crew was friendly, and seeing the lighthouses up close was a highlight. We even saw a bunch of seals! I highly recommend bringing a camera for those bridge shots. Drinks on board were a nice touch too; we had a few mimosas. Can't wait to do it again!
