The Hamptons Sunset Cruise You’ll Remember Forever

Published:
Private sunset sailing charters from Sag Harbor aboard a spacious 62' catamaran. Golden sky, ocean breeze, drinks in hand, and the most beautiful hour of the day shared with the people you love most.
There’s a reason everyone loves sunset on the water. Something changes when the light softens and the harbor begins to glow. The day slows down. Phones come out for photos, then disappear. Conversations deepen. Everyone relaxes. A sunset cruise with Valkyrie Sailing is one of those rare experiences that feels effortless while becoming unforgettable.

Imagine Your Evening...
You arrive in charming Sag Harbor and take Captain Ken’s water taxi, a short ride to your private 60’x30’ sailing catamaran, Valkyrie. We’ll welcome you aboard, get everyone comfortable and set out for your beautiful evening sail. Bring your favorite drinks, light bites, and playlist and stretch out in one of our cozy bean bag chairs to take in the ambiance and views.
What Makes Valkyrie Different?
Not a crowded tour, or a generic rental, Valkyrie offers a more elevated kind of sunset cruise. Our spacious catamaran has plenty of room to lounge or dance, large enough areas to enjoy all together, with enough room to spread and mingle amongst smaller groups as well. Expect a smooth, stable ride with warm experienced hosts and ever-present beautiful sailing routes. Think quiet luxury without pretension.
Better than dinner reservations, a single meal is only that - your private Sunset Cruise with Valkyrie Sailing Charters becomes an instant lifelong memory, creating the kind of evening people talk about for years to come.
Conveniently departing from Sag Harbor, this is an ideal sunset activity for guests staying in East Hampton, Southampton, Bridgehampton, and Shelter Island.
Don’t let this summer be the same as all the others. Some evenings deserve more than another dinner reservation. Book your private sunset charter with Valkyrie Sailing and make this one unforgettable.

Timing & Flexibility
We are very flexible with time and location for our final charter of the day. Listed sunset times serve as our anchor point, allowing us to stage Valkyrie in one of several prime locations for the optimum effect—which generally lasts about 20 minutes after the official sunset.
Whether you want to stay a bit longer to enjoy the afterglow or need us to get you back to the dock exactly in time for those hard-to-get dinner reservations, we tailor the cruise to your plans.
