Codzilla, The High Speed Boat that Cruises the Boston Harbor
There are many Boston Harbor cruises. There are sightseeing cruises, booze cruises, and dinner, lunch, and brunch cruises. There are also high speed cruises offered by the amusingly-named Codzilla. Operated by one of the major players in the Boston Harbor cruising scene, Boston Harbor Cruises, Codzilla offers a high-speed and relatively short trip around the Boston Harbor (or Boston Harbour, although not really because Boston isn’t in the UK). It’s a good option for those who want to get on the Boston Harbor without taking a cruise that takes an entire morning or afternoon, and who can deal with a bumpy and wet ride. Below we’ve compiled all the information you’d ever want to know about Codzilla, including reviews of the experience, ticket prices, and booking information. Read more […] -
Take a Boston Tea Party Cruise
Of all the Boston Harbor cruises, the Boston Tea Party Cruise offered by Liberty Fleet of Tall Ships might be the most unusual (although the Codzilla could plausibly hold this title as well). Part cruise and part history lesson, the Boston Tea Party Cruise allows its passengers to reenact one of the most storied moments in U.S. history in the actual place it took place, the Boston Harbor (or Boston Harbour, although it seems questionable to use the British spelling when talking about an episode that initiated a chain of events culminating in American independence from British rule). It’s a cruise worth trying if you are interested in American history and have kids to entertain, so below we provide an overview of the Boston Tea Party Cruise and explain how you can secure a ticket.

A Guide to Boston Harbor Cruises
There are a number of different cruises you can take in the Boston Harbor (or Boston Harbour, as the British would have it). Probably the main provider (depending on what is meant by “main provider”) of these cruises is the appropriately named Boston Harbor Cruises, but a few other companies offer Boston Harbor cruises as well. Below we supply some information about the various Boston Harbor cruises available, linking to the various companies that offer them. Think of this as a guide to Boston Harbor cruises that will connect you with the appropriate cruise for you. Read more […] -
Boston Harbor Cruises, Linguistically Considered
A Boston Harbor cruise (or Boston Harbour cruise, for our British readers) is either a cruise offered by a company that is actually called “Boston Harbor Cruises” (or BHC), or it is any cruise that takes place in the Boston Harbor. Of course, the cruises offered by Boston Harbor Cruises are in fact cruises that take place in the Boston Harbor, but the point is that BHC does not have a monopoly on these short sailings in the harbor. There are also a number of regular cruises from Boston (i.e., multiple-day voyages offered by cruise lines), but these aren’t really Boston Harbor cruises for reasons we will outline below. Thus, there are Boston Harbor Cruises (with all capital letters) and Boston Harbor cruises (with one lowercase word), with the former being a subset of the latter, and there are also regular cruises from Boston that happen to depart from (where else?) the Boston Harbor. Understandably, you might not have followed all this, so below we explain what Boston Harbor cruises are in greater detail. Read more […]
