Board your festive holiday cruise at the Embarcadero’s Pier 3, near the Ferry Building in San Francisco. Kick off your journey with fresh air out on the deck or sip a cup of coffee inside as the kids greet Santa. His festive seating area makes an ideal location for photo ops with the little ones.
Relax and enjoy the break from holiday madness with a lavish buffet brunch, which includes complimentary sparkling wine and mimosas. While savoring the gourmet selection, take in San Francisco’s most recognizable sights as they pass by. On the 2-hour cruise, you’ll have superb photo opportunities of the San Francisco waterfront, TransAmerica Building and Coit Tower—all iconic features of the city. You’ll also float past Alcatraz Island, Angel Island, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge. Instead of racing around the city, you’ll get the full feel of San Francisco during the holiday season on your relaxing ride.
Ideal for families, this Christmas-themed brunch only runs on weekends in December, so make sure to book early for a chance to dine with Santa while leisurely viewing San Francisco from the water.
