Looking for the perfect night out? Then head for the Seaport District and step aboard the Spirit of Boston for an evening of unparalleled harbor cruising fun on historic Boston Harbor.
You'll know you're in for a special evening the moment you step aboard our elegant decks and are escorted to your candlelit table.

Savor your culinary selections over perfectly-paced dinner music and a never-ending view of Boston's breathtaking skyline seen through our huge panoramic windows. Truly, a sight you won't soon forget.
While you relax over coffee and dessert, Broadway-quality performers will dazzle you with song and dance on the center stage. These exciting entertainers are among the finest "rising stars" in the city, so take a good look. You're sure to see them on television, stage or film in the near future!
After the show, take your drinks topside and relax on the largest outdoor patio deck in the city while Boston's magnificent skyline spreads before you in all directions. It's the perfect pause before the pulsing beat of dance tunes entices you onto the dance floor.
The perfect end to the perfect night.
