Rose Lummis: A small-boat evening on Sodus Bay

THE MUSIC

Local artists set the tone

Friday nights feature live performances by regional musicians—an intimate soundtrack to the cruise that complements the bay’s evening light.

THE SUNSET

Two hours timed for Sodus Bay’s evening light

The itinerary is built around a two-hour window designed to deliver a Sodus Bay sunset from the water, offering panoramic sky-and-water views as the cruise concludes.
