Welcome to Newport, the legendary City by the Sea. The best way to see Newport harbor is from the water. And the Spirit of Newport delivers in style and affordability.
Built in 1987, the M/V Spirit of Newport is a multi-decked cruise ship designed to carry up to 200 passengers in complete comfort and safety.
Our large main deck is completely enclosed and offers a full service bar for food and drinks. Or, choose the partially covered observation deck for a magnificent view of beautiful Narragansett Bay and historic Newport harbor.
There is a photo opportunity everywhere you look as you cruise by the spectacular sights during the one hour narrated tour. Perfect for the whole family, you will see glamorous private yachts, modern racing sailboats, sleek warships, Newports own commercial fishing fleet and even giant cruise ships from around the world.
You'll also cruise by Newport's waterfront, Goat Island, the Newport Bridge, Rose Island, Jamestown, picturesque Hammersmith Farm, Fort Adams and the New York and Ida Lewis Yacht Clubs.
If you do only one thing during your visit to the City by the Sea, a Spirit of Newport Cruise is a great choice.

The Spirit of Newport is also available for conventions, parties, weddings, school and bus tours...whatever your special event may be. A cruise on the Spirit is a magnificent way to add a touch of drama, romance and ambiance to any event. And our attentive staff will ensure that all your needs will be met.
