The NYC booze cruise where the party is the point
The New York Booze Cruise is a party boat on the Hudson River, sailing right past the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty. Every weekend we run day cruises, sunset cruises, and night cruises with a cash bar onboard, a live DJ, and room to actually dance. Grab a single ticket or book the whole boat.
We depart from Pier 78 in Midtown Manhattan, a quick ride from anywhere in the city and easy to reach from New Jersey. Whether you're planning a birthday, a bachelorette party in NYC, or just a night out, a booze cruise turns an ordinary weekend into the best view in New York.
Our sunset cruise is the signature sail, golden hour over the water as the city lights come up. It's the NYC party boat people book again and again, and it sells out fast on summer weekends.
