Navigazione di mezzogiorno e al tramonto sul maestoso Puget Sound di Seattle
Descrizione
Sperimenta la magia di essere trasportato dal vento, proprio come lo fu Peter Puget quando mappò queste acque nel 1792. Dalla Shilshole Bay Marina di Seattle navighiamo verso ovest attraverso il Puget Sound verso le magnifiche Montagne Olimpiche. Lungo la strada osserveremo le orche, i banchi delle nostre focene locali, i leoni marini, le foche del porto, le aquile calve, i grandi aironi blu e altri animali selvatici. Durante la crociera al tramonto, ci godremo lo spettacolo di luci mentre il sole tramonta dietro il famoso Monte Olimpo e altre vette della catena olimpica e illumina le morbide nuvole dell'orizzonte con colori gloriosi. Il Capitano Grant, titolare di una licenza Master of Inland Waters da 100 tonnellate rilasciata dalla Guardia Costiera degli Stati Uniti, si dedica a condividere la gioia di stare in acqua con gli altri. Ex reporter del Seattle Times, ex scrittore di scienze e medicina per l'Associated Press e autore di quattro libri (uno dei quali è stato nominato uno dei 10 migliori libri di saggistica dell'anno dall'American Library Association), Grant è un narratore naturale.
Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
All'uscita dal porto turistico, goditi la vista di oltre 1.800 yacht mentre passiamo accanto al parco di acqua salata preferito di Seattle, Golden Gardens, mentre salpiamo, dirigendoci a ovest attraverso Puget Sound.
A sud, navigheremo oltre il Discovery Park con il suo storico faro di West Point, che protegge le navi dalle acque basse mentre entrano a Seattle dal 1881.
Nelle giornate limpide dovresti avere una vista spettacolare del Monte Rainier, considerato una delle montagne più belle del mondo.
Nelle giornate limpide, a nord, goditi la vista del Monte Baker, la seconda montagna più alta dello stato. Si chiama "Two Mountain Day" quando puoi vedere il Monte Baker a nord e il Monte Rainier a sud mentre navighi attraverso il Puget Sound.
Mentre navighiamo verso ovest, attraverso lo stretto, ci dirigeremo direttamente verso le magnifiche Montagne Olimpiche, il cuore del Parco Nazionale Olimpico. Per le vele al tramonto, le montagne creano tramonti meravigliosi. Mentre il sole tramonta dietro di loro, illumina la catena montuosa e le nuvole sottili sopra.

Captain Grant, and his lovely daughter, were a joy to sail with. The conversation was insightful and enjoyable, and the views were beautiful. All passengers were given a turn to steer the boat, as well as learn some of the basics of sailing. We were able to spot some seals playing and relaxing along the rocks, much to Capt. Grant’s delight. I highly recommend booking your Puget Sound sailing experience with him, if you’re looking for a relaxing, engaging and small-group experience.
Grant and Grace were the consummate host and hostess! Great sail. Informative and knowledgeable !
Loved the laid back, friendly vibe of this trip! Got to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery which included baby seals sunning on the rocks on way out of the marina. Captain Grant and his daughter Grace were most hospitable and generous in sharing details of the area. Each of the passengers even had a turn in steering the boat! Highly recommend!
Capt Grant and his daughter were awesome! Very accommodating. Very knowledgeable. They provided an incredible experience and treated us all like family coming in for a weekend visit. Would highly recommend.
This trip was amazing. We managed to see seals, sea lions and dolphins all in one trip. So relaxing and the captain was very accommodating to everyone on board. It was the best way to spend and afternoon.
Great Trip! We had a wonderful time! Grant loves to sail, and his enthusiasm made it fun for everyone!
We had a wonderful time sailing with Captain Grant! I booked this as a birthday gift for my husband’s 74th birthday! Both of us loved sailing when we were younger and throughly enjoyed this trip! We saw dozens of sea lions in a dock at the outer edge of the marina, were both able to take the helm crossing the Sound and enjoyed a couple of glasses of champagne in celebration on the way back. I highly recommend this trip - you will not be disappointed!
I had a great time with the Captain and his daughter. 1st class all the way. Saw Herons, Sea Lions, Seals, Art, and just a beautiful day on the water. The Captain even dropped me off by the Locks so I could enjoy the Sequoia, Sweetgum and a gorgeous park. Thank you! 🙏 ❤️
Captain Grant did an awesome job welcoming us aboard Sparkles. We really enjoyed our time with him and his lovely daughter Grace. The sunset was beautiful and I can't wait to return to discover more of Puget Sound
