Potomac River Cruises

The majestic Potomac River is located in the mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. The Potomac spans around 383 miles long and empties into the Chesapeake Bay. This river is the 21st largest in the country. There are more than five million people living within range of the Potomac watershed. There are many different Potomac River cruises that can help you make the most of your time in our nation's capital or the surrounding areas. A cruise down this river is an experience that can be both educational and enjoyable.

Many cruises on the Potomac are of short duration. You will find a variety of sightseeing cruises in D.C. that depart from Washington Harbor. On such a cruise you will get to see the Kennedy Center, U.S. Capitol, Washington Monument and also the Jefferson Memorial. Your vantage point from the boat is the perfect place from which to snap gorgeous pictures of the various landmarks of Washington D.C. In addition to brief sightseeing cruises you will also find various lunch and dinner luxury cruises that offer fine food, champagne and gorgeous views of the shoreline.

If you like the idea of combining food with your cruise, check out Dandy Restaurant Cruises. This provider offers brunch, lunch and dinner cruises. There are day cruises and even those that take place after dark. Cruising the Potomac after dark gives you a whole new look at the beautiful monuments of the area. These cruises are perfect for that special occasion such as a birthday or anniversary. They are also great for anyone spending time in D.C. who wants to have a fine meal along with their Potomac cruise.

One of the most romantic of all Potomac River Cruises is the three hour cruise offered by Odyssey Cruises. On this cruise you will enjoy a gourmet meal of four courses, fine wine, great music and even a dance floor. There is very little that can top an evening cruise along the Potomac with your loved one. These cruises make great getaways for couples in love or those who have been married for many years and want to rekindle the spark. No matter which cruise line you go with or why you choose to cruise the Potomac, you are sure to have a wonderful experience on this historic river.
