Schooner Sail And Mimosa Cocktail

OVERVIEW

Sail a sleek schooner around Narragansett Bay, admiring the coastal homes and landmarks, while discovering Newport’s fascinating history. You will sail an elegant 90-foot schooner designed to look like a turn-of-the-century vessel. You can expect a lively, immensely comfortable ride around Narragansett Bay, made even more enjoyable with a mimosa cocktail or another beverage in hand. One of the many highlights is seeing Fort Adams, America’s largest coastal fortification and a National Historic Landmark. It’s quite the sight and especially intriguing once you learn its history, starting in colonial times. The captain and crew will regale you with stories about Newport and famous residents such as Jaqueline Bouvier, who married John F. Kennedy in Newport in 1953.
