Description
Forget the rooftop bar and crowded restaurant. Every Friday and Saturday evening, the Emerald Princess sets sail from the historic Fleischmann Pier in Peekskill, NY — and for two unforgettable hours, the Hudson River becomes your personal party venue.
From the moment you step aboard, you're handed your complimentary Tequila Sunset cocktail — a signature welcome that signals one thing: the weekend has officially started. As the skyline fades behind you, cruise north along one of America's most breathtaking waterways, past dramatic cliffs, historic estates, and all the way to the jaw-dropping Bear Mountain Bridge bathed in golden-hour light.
And while the scenery is stunning, the energy onboard is electric. DJ Esco — a resident DJ and one of the Hudson Valley's most sought-after entertainers — keeps the vibe going all night long. Whether you're on the open-air Sky Lounge soaking up the last rays of the sun or inside the climate-controlled main salon with a drink in hand, there is nowhere better to be on a Friday or Saturday night in the Hudson Valley.
This is the cruise that sold out Victoria's Secret Fashion Show transportation, hosted West Point's Ring Ceremony, and earns 4.9 stars across 234 verified reviews. When you're aboard the Emerald Princess, you're not just taking a boat ride — you're the guest of honor at the best party on the water.
