R.M.S Cruises

Boat tours along the Hudson have a way of turning an ordinary afternoon into something memorable. R.M.S Cruises offers exactly that—scheduled departures from a spot where the river widens and the Palisades rise in the distance. The agency specializes in sightseeing loops, sunset sails, and private charters; each trip designed to let passengers step away from the shoreline and into the rhythm of the water.

You’ll find the dock at Charles Point Park Fleischmann Pier, 1 John Walsh Blvd, Peekskill, NY 10566. The location itself is part of the appeal—Peekskill’s waterfront has slowly reclaimed its industrial edges, blending old brick warehouses with new paths and picnic tables. From here, the skyline of Yonkers and the Tappan Zee Bridge come into view, framing the kind of scenery that feels both familiar and fresh.

Most outings last between one and three hours, depending on the route. Public tours run on weekends from late spring through early fall, while private bookings can be arranged mid-week with enough notice. A quick call to (201) 312-3554 will confirm availability and departure times, so you can plan without guessing.
