Embark on a breathtaking 1.5 hour Sunset Cruise on the Cape Fear River aboard "the Wilmington", a comfortable 49-passenger motor catamaran. Fully enclosed with adjustable windows for your pleasure. The Wilmington offers comfortable seating and 360-degree views of the stunning riverfront and natural beauty of Eagles Island. Enjoy a tasty cocktail or drink from our full service bar, featuring both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. Sit back and relax to the captains playlists as we cruise the downtown riverfront, then head west along Eagles Island, chasing the last rays of the setting sun. Finally, we sail back to downtown where you'll experience the lights, smells, and sounds of our quaint city by night. Boarding and disembarking are at our homeport. 212 South Water Street. We look forward to having you cruise with us!

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for the Sunset Cruise? What if I want to bring my kids?

A: There’s no strict age limit for the Sunset Cruise, and kids are definitely welcome! Just keep in mind that since it's a boat ride, it might be best for kids who are a bit older and can sit still for 1.5 hours. The crew is super accommodating and there’s a restroom on board, so no worries about that. A sunset cruise is a great family outing!

Q: What should I wear on the Sunset Cruise? Is it chilly at night?

A: Definitely wear something casual and comfy! As for chilly weather, it can get a bit breezy once the sun goes down, so I'd suggest bringing a light jacket or sweater. The cruise is fully enclosed, so you’ll be protected from the wind, but it’s nice to have a layer just in case. Flip-flops or sandals are good, but you might want to avoid anything too fancy.

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather looks bad? What’s the policy?

A: Yes, you can usually reschedule if the weather doesn’t cooperate. The team at Wilmington Water Tours is pretty flexible about this. It’s best to call them directly, and they'll help you find another time to enjoy the sunset. Just keep an eye on the forecast as your date approaches!

Just did the Sunset Cruise in Wilmington – WOW!

I just got back from the Sunset Cruise on the Cape Fear River and it was amazing! The views of Eagles Island at sunset were breathtaking. The Wilmington has this awesome full bar, and I treated myself to a cocktail while enjoying the ride. The captain's playlist was just right for the vibe. I went with some friends, and everyone had a blast. Highly recommend this for a romantic date or a fun outing with friends!

Looking for a unique gift? Consider the Sunset Cruise!

I’m thinking about gifting my parents a Sunset Cruise for their anniversary. They love being on the water and I heard good things about this experience! Has anyone done it recently? Really want to know if it’s worth it. What’s the atmosphere like? Are kids allowed?
