Why you should go…

Newport Classic Cruises has run sightseeing and sunset sails out of Newport Harbor since 1994, operating a small fleet of classic vessels: the schooners Adirondack IV and Madeleine, the sloop Eleanor, and the 1929 motor yacht Rum Runner II. Ticketed cruises run daily May through October, alongside private charters for weddings and other events, departing from Bowen's and Bannister's Wharves.
