Tilikum Crossing, Portland’s newest bridge, opened in 2015 for foot, bicycle, and public transportation traffic only. The bridge features 178 LED lights that are set to change color and speed according to the temperature of the water, the direction of the tide and speed of the river.
You'll pass under the Ross Island Bridge, designed by famed engineer Gustav Lindernthal. Gustav designed bridges over the Hudson River in Ohio and dozens of other rivers in the United States.

You'll pass under the Sellwood Bridge, Portland's southernmost bridge. The bridge is the busiest two-lane crossing in Oregon, carrying about 30,000 vehicles a day. It replaced a two-lane bridge originally built in 1925 that stood for more than 90 years.

Cruise by Waverley Country Club, one of the first golf clubs in the west, established in 1896. Fifty years before the construction of Waverley Country Club on the current site, its history can be traced back to Henderson Luelling, known as the Johnny Appleseed of the West. It is believed by many that the presentation of the green jacket at the Masters started at Waverley.
The Island represents part of an ancient volcano that erupted about 40 million years ago. The large, jagged rocks found throughout the area are Waverly Heights Basalt that were formed by lava flows and may be the oldest exposed rocks in the Portland area. Only on the dinner cruise can you see this island up close as we pass by it on our way to Lake Oswego.
Lake Oswego is a city located in Clackamas County, but has small portions extending into Washington County to the west and Multnomah County to the north.
Foothills park was completed in 2005 and has become one of Lake Oswego’s premier riverfront parks.
Cruise under the Morrison Bridge, named after a Scottish immigrant, John L. Morrison, who built the first home on Morrison Street.
