Venture to Spectacle Island for an afternoon of solar eclipse viewing from Boston Harbor! Featuring unobstructed views of Boston and its surroundings, Spectacle Island will offer a unique opportunity to experience 2024 partial solar eclipse. While Boston will not experience totality, we anticipate seeing 93% coverage of the sun if weather permits.
Your ticket includes:
Directions: Guests must arrive at Long Wharf North *by 12:30 pm* to board the ferry to Spectacle Island. It will depart promptly at 1:00 pm and will not wait for late arrivals. No refunds.
The return ferry will depart Spectacle Island at 4:30 pm, with an 5:00 pm scheduled return to Boston. *Please note that the Harbor can be busy in the evening which can cause unforeseen delays.*
Island Accessibilty for April 8: Due to ongoing dock and trail maintenance from off-season storms there will be limited accessibilty. All guests will traverse a flight of stairs when disembarking the ferry, and trails have experienced significant wash-out.
