As the hot weather of summertime begins to abate, the trees take on their annual colorful wardrobe. Taking a trip to see the leaves change color is a long-standing tradition… so why not take things up a notch and do so from the deck of a luxury yacht? It costs much less than you think!
Fall Foliage Cruise: The Colors of Autumn
The profusion of color as fall kicks in along New York City, Long Island, Westchester, and Connecticut is rightfully legendary. As the leaves begin their change and the oppressive heat fades away, there could not be a better time to pamper yourself with a truly unique experience.
Fall is when nature presents her most vibrant foliage – a veritable explosion of color – tracked annually by the NY Fall Foliage Report (updated weekly throughout the season). It is the perfect time to book the Skyline Princess for a fall cruise of New York Harbor or, even better, book a chartered fall foliage cruise for the finest way to see it in all its splendor.
If you have a group, a school event, a company celebration, or a milestone life event (like an anniversary or wedding), what would be a better way to celebrate the mellowing of the weather than a river cruise on the Skyline Princess?
Amazing Waterfront Views
The Skyline Princess is one of the most renowned waterfront venues in the NYC area… offering amenities designed to make any event a treasured memory. No matter the size of your party, there are a wide variety of options, ranging from public lunch or dinner cruises to full deck and full ship rentals. We even have a full dance floor and DJ booth on our third-level Skylight Deck. No matter what the event or occasion, we promise an event to remember.
Depending on the sights you wish to see, there are a variety of cruise options and ports available for full ship private charters, including departures from The World’s Fair Marina (Flushing, NY), Liberty Landing Marina (Jersey City, NJ), and Veteran’s Memorial Park Marina (Norwalk, CT) – among others. All public cruises depart from the World’s Fair Marina in Queens.
Historic Lighthouses
It is not just the amazing foliage that can be seen on these cruises. In our cruises along the Long Island Sound, the plethora of historic lighthouses pose a fantastic counterpoint to the changing leaves. Historic structures such as the Stepping Stones Lighthouses, Execution Rocks, and the Long Island North Shore Gold Coast mansions abound – providing additional backdrops for your selfies and photos.

Fall Foliage Cruises are only the beginning. Skyline Cruises puts a unique spin on any event or occasion. From fundraisers and corporate events to fall dinner cruises, weddings, anniversary parties, and religious ceremonies, our triple-deck luxury yacht can provide you with all the options you require.
