The Viaggio Cruise

Situated along Northport Bay in New York, Onda Bella Cruises offers a refreshing 2-hour journey on the water with their signature Viaggio Cruise. This experience invites travelers to unwind aboard a thoughtfully crafted vessel, where every detail — from local craft beers to artisanal charcuterie — elevates the day. Guests have the freedom to chart their own course, whether that means drifting through tranquil harbor waters or anchoring near Asharoken Beach, a quiet stretch famed for its sandy shoreline and gentle waves.

The moment the boat holds still, you can swap your sea legs for paddle boards rigged by the crew, slip into the crisp water for a swim, or linger on the floating dock to soak up the fresh coastal breeze. Northport Bay itself is a marine haven characterized by its calm, sheltered waters bordered by salt marshes and stands of eastern white pine. The area’s natural setting offers birdwatchers a chance to spot ospreys soaring overhead and egrets wading in the shallows.

Asharoken Beach adds another element to the experience, presenting coastal geology shaped by longshore drift and tidal rhythms. This combination of gentle adventure and scenic calm distinguishes Onda Bella Cruises from the typical charters found in the region. Owned and operated locally, Onda Bella Cruises taps into Northport’s maritime heritage by collaborating with Del Vino Vineyards for wines and Sand City Brewery for craft beer, connecting guests to the flavors of the Northport area.

These thoughtful partnerships and customizable options lend an intimate, laid-back quality to the Viaggio Cruise, making it an ideal way for visitors to engage with the outdoors without needing specialized skills. Whether you’re savoring a lobster roll on board or paddling off the coast, Onda Bella crafts an authentic, approachable waterborne adventure that complements the greater outdoor recreational landscape of Long Island’s North Shore.
