A New Way to Experience West Grand Traverse Bay

While The Discovery is temporarily out of the water for repairs, we’re delighted to welcome The Princess to our fleet and continue getting you out on the beautiful waters of West Grand Traverse Bay.

The Princess offers a wonderful way to enjoy the bay, with an expansive, fully open upper deck where you can soak up the sunshine, fresh air, and spectacular Northern Michigan skies. Prefer a little more shelter? The enclosed main deck features panoramic windows that slide open, allowing you to enjoy the scenery and a refreshing lake breeze while staying comfortable.

As you cruise along the shoreline, relax with a drink from our fully stocked bar and choose from a selection of snacks available for purchase.

Different boat, same beautiful bay—and the same Discovery Cruises commitment to creating a memorable experience on the water.

About This Event

Grand Traverse Bay is a magnificent destination that attracts people from all corners of the globe. 

Relax on The Princess, which features an expansive upper deck and enclosed lower deck, both offering panoramic views. She has enough protection from the weather so we are able to cruise rain or shine. Binoculars are a fun way to extend your viewing pleasure and cameras are a must! 

Originally built in 1973, The Princess has carried passengers to iconic destinations like Mackinac Island, Pictured Rocks, and the Apostle Islands. It offers guests the perfect way to explore the stunning beauty of West Grand Traverse Bay.
