Starting Thursday, July 10, and continuing each Thursday through August 21, the Whatcom Museum’s popular summer cruise aboard the Island Mariner takes a close-up view of parks, businesses, industry and neighborhoods from Bellingham Bay, with Bellingham native Brian Griffin as tour guide.
“Brian ties his knowledge of the area’s history and facts with current events in an enjoyable way,” says the Museum’s Executive Director Patricia Leach. “People always leave the boat with a better understanding of the place they live or are visiting — it’s a memorable evening!”
Island Mariner Cruises is located at 2621 South Harbor Loop Drive, Bellingham WA 98225. The cruise boards at 5:30 p.m., departs promptly at 6 p.m., and returns to the dock around 8:30 p.m.
Tickets are $30/$25 for museum members and $28 per person for groups of 8 or more. You can purchase tickets online at Brown Paper Tickets or in-person at the Whatcom Museum’s Museum Store located at 250 Flora Street in Bellingham.
