About Your Trip

Kick back and explore the scenic waterways of Westport, Massachusetts with Ray’s River Cruises—where the pace is easy, the vibes are good, and the boat is always ready for fun. Whether you're in town for the weekend or just looking to get out on the water for a few hours, Ray's got the perfect setup to help you unwind and make the most of your time on the South Coast.

Step aboard Ray’s 25' Formula center console, a sleek and sturdy ride built for both comfort and style. With plenty of open deck space, cushioned seating, and smooth handling, this boat is ideal for cruising the calm estuaries, inlets, and back bays that make Westport such a special place. You’ll have front-row seats to the natural beauty of the area—think winding rivers, salt marshes, and postcard-worthy coastal views.

Ray’s trips are totally beer-friendly and 100% kid-approved, making them perfect for families, friend groups, or just about anyone looking to get out on the water. Whether you're celebrating a birthday, showing visitors around, or just soaking up a summer afternoon, you can bring your own beverages, snacks, and good company—Ray will handle the rest.

He’s as laid-back as they come, but don’t mistake that for lack of professionalism. Ray knows these waters inside and out and is committed to making sure every cruise is smooth, safe, and full of good vibes. He’ll tailor the trip to your group’s preferences, whether that means spotting wildlife, finding the perfect swimming spot, or simply cruising and relaxing.

All you need to bring is your cooler, your crew, and your sense of adventure. Let Ray show you the best of Westport from the water—you won’t want the day to end.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
