2024 Seaport Cruises Now On Sale! Cruise into summer along the historic Long Island Sound.
One of the more popular spring and summer maritime activities is the Norwalk Seaport Association’s (NSA) cruise to Sheffield Island Lighthouse. Placed on the National Register of Historic Places, it was said back in 1869, “The view from the top of the Sheffield Lighthouse, on a clear summer's day, is worth a journey of a thousand miles to see.” Featuring both weekday and weekend cruises to Sheffield Island, the NSA also offers a schedule of several cruise themes and destinations, such as a clambake cruise, a sunset harbor cruise, and for those with a thirst for adventure, pirate-themed cruises. Many cruises offer opportunities for viewing marine wildlife, such as seals and sea birds, in their natural habitat along the Norwalk Islands. For your convenience, tickets for all Seaport Association cruises can be purchased online at https://bit.ly/4cOZgHH. The vessel leaves from the Seaport Dock located on 4 North Water St., adjacent to the Stroffolino Bridge at the corner of Washington and Water Streets in South Norwalk. Parking is available at the adjacent lot or at the Maritime Garage. @norwalkseaport @cityofnorwalk @norwalk_ct
