Seattle One Way Locks Cruise
About this experience
See a different side to Washington State's biggest city on this Seattle Locks Cruise. This one-way Ballard Locks cruise allows you to see the spectacular Seattle skyline, and learn about the city's Hiram M. Chittenden Locks.
Your salt-to-freshwater cruise is narrated by a live guide, who'll entertain you with nuggets of local history as you float past fishing boats, seaplanes, and floating homes. Grab a cocktail or soft drink from the bar while passing under historical bridges, and experience the boat rising, and lowering with the locks that control the action on the Puget Sound.
