Shooting Star

NJ Stargazing Cruises
The 2024 cruises have not been posted yet. One of our astronomers may not be able to host the NJ cruises this season. Please check back later in July. If we are unable to cruise this season, tickets do not expire and can also be used at our dark sky Catskill Mountain Astronomy & Camping events or our Long Island Stargazing Cruises.

From the top deck of the boat the astronomer will use the intercom system and light pointer to guide you through the constellations, planets, giant red stars, nebula, star clusters and even galaxies!


Nearly every cruise will have meteors streaking across the sky! The cruises are both fun and educational.

Our 2024 season is June through September on select evenings.

 

The cruises are from 9 pm to 11:30 pm.

 

2024 will be our 11th year cruising under the stars!

 

 

 

 

The boats cruise out into the ocean away from all the lights for an amazing astronomy experience!
