With summer in full swing and Boston Harbor within reach, what better way to spend quality family time than with a boat ride on the open seas?
Our city has a deep and exciting nautical history, and kids really enjoy a venture offshore. Boston Harbor has whale watch trips, speedboats, schooners, and even a ship shaped like a duck—enough seafaring options to satisfy every member of the family.
