General Info
Water Transportation Alternatives, Inc. (WTAI), Bostons Best Cruises, is comprised of a group of business entities specializing in marine transportation and related maritime industries. The company, founded in 1996, now operates the following services: T Harbor Express Water Shuttle - The T Harbor Express operates seven days a week, year round connecting the Quincy Shipyard and Hull to Boston and Logan Airport. We operate two state-of-the-art high-speed catamarans. The service combines convenient departure times and docking locations with low cost ticket fares and parking. We offer Cruise & Dine packages including discounts at local restaurants, along with complimentary snacks onboard for our customers every Thursday and Friday night! Harbor Express was the first high-speed commuter boat in the Boston area and continues to be the best way to get from the South Shore into Boston and Logan. Whale Watching: Join the New England Aquarium and Boston's Best Cruises aboard the Voyager III for a high-speed trip to Stellwagen Bank to view some of the largest and most spectacular creatures on earth! Our naturalists narrate as you leave Boston Harbor before describing the whales in their natural habitat. Whale sightings are guaranteed! Voyager III - The Voyager III is a high-speed catamaran whale watch vessel owned and operated by WTAI in conjunction with the famous New England Aquarium. As one of the oldest Whale Watch programs in the Country, the New England Aquarium Whale Watch offers a superior experience. Voyager III is the only Whale Watch vessel in Boston that is specifically designed for Whale Watching. The vessel has the most outside viewing area spread out over the decks and ample inside seating as well. There is an onboard concessions bar serving snacks, drinks and cocktails. Whale sightings are guaranteed! Boston Harbor Islands - WTAI operates the ferry service to the Boston Harbor Islands National Park Area. In 2005, we completed the construction of two brand new high-speed catamarans, the Island Expedition and Island Discovery. These vessels cut the travel time from Boston to Georges Island and Spectacle Island to under 30 minutes, with departures every 30 minutes on peak season weekends! Their high-speed also makes them perfect for harbor cruises and sunset cruises which quickly travel to areas of the harbor unreachable by conventional ferries. The Salem Ferry - WTAI and the City of Salem have partnered to launch high-speed ferry service between Blaney Street in Salem and Central Wharf in Boston. The City purchased the Friendship IV ferry which travels at 30 knots and makes the trip between Boston and Salem in approximately 45 minutes. Operated by WTAI, the ferry makes seven round trips per day and runs Memorial Day through Halloween. Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi - WTAI purchased the Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi in 2007, and operates five vessels on a frequent schedule connecting 11 stops on the Intracoastal Waterway and New River. The company currently operates a fleet of five 45' water taxis including two diesel-electric hybrid vessels. In addition to scheduled service, Water Taxi also operates day trips to South Beach and charter services. Charter Services - WTAI vessels are available for evening charters. The vessels are appropriate for corporate functions, fundraisers, family reunions, etc.
