Set sail into summer: Sound waters kicks off 2025 Public Sails!

Enjoy the excitement and wonder of Long Island Sound aboard SoundWaters 80′ Schooner. Two-hour sunset and afternoon sails are offered all summer long starting Memorial Day weekend. Guests can take in spectacular views of the Stamford lighthouse, Shippan Point, Greenwich Point, Long Island and, on clear days, even the New York City skyline.

“We’re eager to get the season underway and welcome everyone aboard,” said SoundWaters Vice President of Development, Bob Mazzone. “Our public sails create a relaxing escape on the water, where guests can unwind and immerse themselves in the natural splendor of the Sound.”

Sunset sails will be available Wednesday through Sunday evenings, and passengers are invited to bring their own dinner and beverages to enjoy. At $45 a person, the sunset sail is designed for those looking to relax and take in the tranquil beauty of the evening. In addition to those at sunset, SoundWaters will offer afternoon sails on Saturdays and Sundays, priced at $35 for adults and $20 for children ages 5-12.

All public sails depart from the Cohen SoundWaters Harbor Center, located at 200 Southfield Avenue in Stamford. To ensure timely boarding, SoundWaters recommends arriving at least 20 minutes before departure. The schooner operates with casual, open seating, so guests are free to stand or sit at their discretion.
