Hop aboard our fast ferry and experience the magic of Salem in under an hour. From museums and shops to fine dining and culture, this historic port town has enough to beguile—and bewitch—the entire family.
Art. Food. History. It’s enough to leave you spellbound.
Salem is an experience unlike any other—colonial-era cobblestone lanes where Nathaniel Hawthorne once strolled lead you to fine restaurants, a fabled waterfront and the exquisite Peabody Essex Museum, the art and cultural epicenter of the North Shore.
The Nathaniel Bowditch is owned by the City of Salem and operated under contract by Boston Harbor Cruises. She holds 149 passengers and cruises at up to 33 knots—so you can spend less time getting to Salem and more time exploring there. The vessel is 92 feet long and features two decks. The first deck features booth seating, a galley and three restrooms. The second deck includes a partially enclosed space with benches and tables as well as a large open-air space for soaking up the summer sun.
Duration: Approx. 50 minute ferry ride each way
