Partial WaterFire® Rides

Trip Highlights

  • Enchanting Evening Cruise

  • Partial WaterFire® Lighting

  • Scenic Downtown Waterways

Description

Our partial WaterFire® boat rides include an evening cruise throughout the downtown waterways, with the addition of a partial WaterFire® lighting! Partial lightings can include braziers in any section of the river.

What’s the difference between a full lighting and a partial lighting? Partial WaterFire® lightings typically encompass only one section of the river, while a Full WaterFire® lighting includes all braziers throughout the Providence River from Memorial Park to the basin of WaterPlace Park.

Check in at The Landing at 101 Dyer Street. Our docks are located right across the street at Dyer Street Landing.

Enjoy a relaxing cruise through the scenic downtown waterways.

We love dogs, but....only service animals specifically trained to aid a person with a disability are allowed aboard. Comfort animals, emotional support animals, and therapy animals are not service animals and are therefore not recognized by the ADA or the State of Rhode Island.
There are no restrooms on the boats, so please plan ahead and use the bathroom inside The Landing prior to boarding. You will need to allow yourself extra time to check-in, use the bathroom and walk to the docks in time for boarding, so please arrive a few minutes earlier than normal.
