Portsmouth Harbor Cruises & Isles of Shoals: Accessible Tips

A harbor cruise is one of the best ways to experience Portsmouth, gliding past the working waterfront, under the bridges, and out toward the historic Isles of Shoals. It is a relaxing, sit-down way to see the coast, which makes it appealing for a loved one who finds walking tours tiring. The part that takes planning is getting from the parking to the dock and aboard the boat, and that is where a rental helps.

Oceans Mobility delivers to Portsmouth for your cruise day.

Getting to the dock

The walk from downtown parking to the waterfront piers, over brick and cobblestone, is often the hardest part of the day. A travel mobility scooter or a lightweight transport wheelchair makes that walk easy and gets a loved one to the boarding area comfortably. Boarding ramps and onboard access vary by vessel, so call the cruise operator ahead about their specific accessibility, and plan the equipment around what they tell you.

Before and after the cruise

Many people pair a cruise with lunch and a stroll downtown. A scooter keeps a loved one part of that too, and a rollator with a seat is handy for rests. See our downtown Portsmouth guide.
