Welcome to Cayuga Lake, the Cayuga Wine Trail and Water To Wine Tours,
offering a unique opportunity to tour award winning Finger Lakes wineries
from a boat along a beautiful and scenic glacier lake.
| We offer private and group tours. All scheduled cruises depart from the dock at
O'Malley's Restaurant in Interlaken, NY or the Aurora Inn in Aurora, NY. Reservations are highly recommended.
All Interlaken departures tour past the beautiful Sheldrake-Kidders shoreline. You will view Victorian homes with lakefront gardens and vintage boathouses. Cayuga Lake is over 40 miles long and almost 500 feet deep. The waters are sparkling clear and approach 80 degrees in summer. As we head north past Sheldrake, the lake is at its widest point of 3 miles. We will see Long Point State Park and the charming village of Aurora, featuring Wells College, many large Victorian homes and the famous Aurora Inn. All six of the wineries that we pass offer access by boat and lunch is available at O'Malley's, Thirsty Owl, the Aurora Inn and The Fargo. All cruises are weather dependent with the Captain making the call. Any trip cancelled by the Captain is fully refundable. All stops in Aurora involve some steps and a short walk. Gift Certificates are available. Please join us for a sampling of some of the world's finest wines while cruising one of the world's finest lakes. Make your visit really special! |
Private cruises are available on the 6 passenger II Special, a custom built "Gentleman's Runabout" offering classic elegance in a modern performance package. She is 27 feet long with mahogany decks and sumptuous seating for six, plus the captain. She departs from either the Silver Strand Bed & Breakfast or the Aurora Inn. |  |
| The Isle of Skye is available for either private or group tours and can accommodate up to 15 passengers, plus the Captain. She is a 26 foot long harbor launch built in Newport, Rhode Island and evokes the look of a Maine lobster boat. She offers easy ingress and egress and some weather protection. Her classic lines and festive adornment make her a special event from the moment you board. She departs from either O'Malley's or the Aurora Inn. |  click to enlarge |

| Either boat may be rented privately for any event, including small weddings which afford the added bonus of the Captain being able to perform legal ceremonies.
Birthdays, anniversaries, engagements, bachelor/bachelorette parties, retirement, graduation, full moon—you name it—and we'll celebrate it on the water!
