July 4th Fireworks Cruise

Posted by: Rock66 ()

Join the Washington Area Parrot Head Club for an evening cruising on the Potomac River and the best view of the fireworks over the National Mall. This is the ONLY National Firework display. If you have never seen these fireworks from the water, this is a treat not to be missed.

The cruise will benefit the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.

Cruise departs from the Alexandria City marina located behind the Torpedo Factory at the foot of King Street at 7:30 sharp. Expected return is 10:30 PM. Boarding Time is 7:15.

The cruise is aboard the good ship Matthew Hayes. This ship is one of the few ships on the Potomac that can slip under the 14th Street Bridge and get right up next to the fireworks display. It does have two heads (bathrooms for the landlubbers) aboard. It is an open ship with the rear 80% of the ship covered. The bow is not covered. It is truly one of the best ships on the Potomac to see the fireworks.

Ticket price is for cruise only. Please feel free to bring your own small cooler aboard with your own snacks and beverages.

Attire is whatever will make you feel comfortable. This ship does not have an air conditioned area but dressed appropriately it is a comfortable ship. Remember that it will be evening, it has a covered area, and the ship creates its own breeze when it moves up the river.

This cruise is open to everyone. Join the fun and bring your friends.
