Come for a sail on our top-rated replica of the 1812 privateer Fame, one of Salem’s premier activities. Help raise the sails or just enjoy your time on the water!
What better way to end your day in Salem than with a relaxing sunset sail? As twilight spreads across the waters of Salem Sound, the only interruption is the roar of our sunset cannon!
Join us on the Fame as we depart from Salem for a five-hour Gloucester Schooner Festival adventure, celebrating the importance of schooners in New England’s history!
Each July 4, Fame celebrates the nation’s birthday (and the taking of her first prizes off New Brunswick in 1812) with an extended sunset cruise followed by a front-row seat for Salem’s fireworks display!
Salem’s brave little fleet of passenger vessels will parade out of Pickering Wharf, through the Harbor, past Winter Island and the Willows, over to Beverly and back! Expect flag-waving, cannon-firing,
