Newport Sunset Sail on Classic Sailboat: Narragansett Bay Views★★★★★★★★★★ 4.73 (59)1h 30mA 1.5-hour sunset sail around Narragansett Bay on a classic sailboat, departing from Newport with views of historic lighthouses, landmarks, bridges and mansions from the water. The experience is unnarrated — the crew answers questions as you sail — and minimum age is 12. Arrive 20 minutes early to check in; parking in Newport takes at least 60 minutes on weekends, and the boat departs promptly at the scheduled time.Is it for me?Book this sail if you're comfortable with a tight parking window and an exact departure time — the boat leaves on schedule, so arriving early is non-negotiable, especially on weekends. The unnarrated format works well if you want to set your own pace and ask the crew about what you're seeing rather than listen to a prepared script.fromUS$ 68View ›
