Celebrate the arrival of summer on the historic USS Potomac - the Summer Solstice sunset cruise on June 20 - with a wine tasting of top vintners offered by Rosenblum Cellars at Jack London Square.
Your ticket includes snacks and a complimentary tasting glass.
Franklin D. Roosevelt's beautifully restored presidential yacht will take you back in time to a consequential period in American history with its artifacts and displays on board. You can almost imagine the president relaxing with friends, families, and dignitaries on the settee at the back of the boat. In fact, you'll see photographs of just those scenes taken back in the 1930s.
If you wish, for extra fun, dress in vintage-wear of the 1930s and 1940s! You'll fit right in the scene!
Come aboard on this after-dinner, adults-only cruise as we sail into the bay. Sunset is at 8:35 p.m.
While Karl the Fog can appear any time of year in San Francisco Bay, we are sure you will enjoy all of the sights on this very special evening cruise. Dress warmly in layers!
Small fruit and cheese bites will be available as you sample your wine and watch the sunset. Complimentary coffee, tea, hot chocolate and dispensed water will also be available on board.
