Seattle's Tall Ship

2203 Alaskan Way · Seattle, WA

Why you should go…

Seattle's Tall Ship operates the 85 foot schooner Bay Lady from the city's historic waterfront. The company runs daily harbor sailing tours, sunset sails, and a Sunday brunch sail on Puget Sound with views of the Olympic Mountains, and no sailing experience is required of guests. The vessel previously sailed out of Maine and San Francisco before relocating to Seattle in 2020.

Good to know

General tours guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Confirm the meeting point

    It is often a corner, a lobby, or a dock rather than the address you searched for. Check it the night before.

  • Small groups fill first

    In high season the intimate departures sell out well before the big-bus options do.

  • Ask how much is on foot

    Knowing how much of the route is walking, standing, or outdoors tells you what to wear and carry.

  • Read the weather policy

    Cancellation windows and rain rules vary by operator, and they are easier to find before you pay than after.
