Upcoming Public Cruises

Our research vessel, "R/V Spirit of the Sound" cruises all year long, offering a cleaner and greener venue to explore Long Island Sound. All cruises leave from the Aquarium Dock which is located next to our IMAX® theater!

Cruise Policies

The time listed on your ticket is the departure time - please plan to arrive at the dock 15 minutes prior.
Passengers must be over 42" tall. If under the age of 18, you must be accompanied by an adult.
A capacity limit is set by the U.S. Coast Guard. We recommend purchasing tickets in advance (walk-up tickets are sold, space permitting.)
Refunds are not available on pre-purchased tickets; cruises canceled by the Aquarium due to weather will be rescheduled.
