PATRIOT CRUISES

"A St. Michaels Tradition Since 1969!"

Narrated Cruises ~ Historic Homes ~ Wildlife
Snack Bar ~ Climate-Controlled Main Deck

St. Michaels is steeped in history dating from before the American Revolution, and is known as "The Town That Fooled the British" from a skirmish during the War of 1812. The ambiance of Colonial and Victorian era charm is enchanting and can be enjoyed throughout your visit.

First on your itinerary must be a cruise aboard the climate-controlled PATRIOT, a St. Michaels Tradition Since 1969! We help you become familiar with the area as we cruise upon the beautiful Miles River, part of the Chesapeake Bay Estuary which is the largest in the Western Hemisphere. Learn about our local beginnings, view historic homes and wildlife, and watch local watermen harvest clams, oysters and the famous Chesapeake Bay Blue Crab during their respective seasons.

The PATRIOT offers more than the historical scenic cruises for which it is famous. Four daily cruises are scheduled as well as evening charters for a variety of events. Let our captain and crew cater your small intimate affairs with close friends, family reunions, corporate events and more! Relax while you and your guests enjoy beautiful views along the Miles River that change with the seasons.

With a season that runs from March through November, we can host a wide variety of events. The PATRIOT accommodates up to 85 passengers for a sit down dinner, and up to 150 passengers for cocktail parties. The main deck is air-conditioned; the upper deck is open, but can be enclosed in inclement weather.

So escape to St. Michaels on the beautiful Eastern Shore of Maryland, an historic town filled with charming shops, famous restaurants, inns, and the renowned Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, where we are located.

If you seek a more exclusive event or cruise, then consider the charter of our 71' 1939 Trumpy Motor Yacht, "Howard Hughes' Mysterious Trumpy." Let take you back to a by-gone era of charm and prestige.
