Graduation Cruises and Parties on the Skyline Princess
A Skyline Cruise is the perfect way to celebrate high school or college graduation – especially for schools participating in Project Graduation. For high schools, it’s a safe, fun, alcohol-free party that will create lifetime memories.
Skyline graduation parties feature outstanding service, delicious menus and the stunning scenery of our NY Harbor and Long Island Sound cruises. Skyline high school graduation cruises cater to the teen crowd. Project Graduation was created to provide alcohol- and drug-free festivities for young adults graduating high school, and Skyline Cruises is proud to help this program catch on in the tri-state area.
For college graduations, Skyline provides a full range of options and services – including bar service. No matter the needs of the celebration, Skyline’s event planners will work with you to create a memorable occasion.
Skyline’s New York Harbor cruises feature iconic landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, and more. For private graduation cruises, select one of the following ports with their own special itineraries:
- The World’s Fair Marina – Flushing, Queens, NY
- Chelsea Piers – Manhattan, New York (Private Cruises Only)
- Pier 36 – Downtown Manhattan, NYC
- Liberty Landing Marina – Jersey City, New Jersey

- Ponus Yacht Club – Stamford, CT
- Veteran’s Memorial Park Marina – Norwalk, CT
- Municipal Marina – New Rochelle, New York

Dockside events are also available for those who want a unique event without sailing. Skyline’s event planners will work with you to plan a departure time that suits your school, including late night and after-midnight Project Graduation cruises.
“I can sum up my classmates reaction to the cruise last Saturday night in one word – Fantastic! Every person aboard said it was the highlight of a great weekend full of memorable events. The skipper, the crew, wait staff, bartenders, etc. were awesome! They couldn’t do enough for us. All together they made it a night to remember. You can rest assured that we will pass the word to our follow classes that Skyline Cruises is the way to go.” – Gerry H.
Project Graduation Cruises
Whether you’re planning a large or small event, the Skyline Cruises event planners will work with you to create a celebration that is fun and safe for your students.
For prom-style events you can have a sit-down dinner as elegant as you’d like – or go with a more casual event with a buffet and waiter-served hors d’oeuvres. Menus can range from foods that are teen favorites to something a bit more grown up to make them feel like adults.
Among the entertainment we can arrange are:
- DJs
- Photo booth
- Caricaturist
- Magician
- And more…
Cruise along the spectacular Manhattan Skyline, beautiful Long Island Sound and CT shore, or the scenic New Jersey coastline while dancing in our enclosed third deck dance floor and DJ space. The Skyline Princess can hold up to 450 passengers for events of various styles.
“Thanks for everything! You are wonderful. I really appreciate everything you do for our school. I want to wish you a fantastic summer. Thanks again!!” – Sincerely,
Michele L.
