Celebrate National Lighthouse Day on Thursday, August 7 with a ninety-minute evening cruise aboard the Coastal Queen. The boat leaves Bowen’s Wharf at 5:45 PM, returns at 7:15 PM, and features live sea-shanty and maritime tunes from Sharks Come Cruisin. Tickets are sixty dollars per person and open to guests of every age. A portion of the proceeds supports the Rose Island Lighthouse Foundation, so your sunset views and sing-alongs also help preserve one of Rhode Island’s most beloved beacons.
