Stop At: Come Sailing, Inc.
400 East Monroe Street, Chicago, IL 60601
We will depart from Navy Pier Marina along the north side of Navy Pier. Once the safety briefing is completed and all dock lines have been brought on board, our trip will begin. The itinerary, course/route we are sailing for will depend mostly on the wind direction. However, being that this is a private charter, the itinerary remains very flexible and pretty much at your discretion. So, if you’d like to see a particular landmark or prefer to sail a particular route, just ask our captain and they will be happy to oblige. If, instead, you’d prefer to leave all of the decision up to the captain, no problem. Our captain will be happy to take you for an enjoyable sunset sail on Lake Michigan during which you will sail in close proximity to some, or all, of the landmarks listed in the itinerary below.
Duration: 2 hours

600 E Grand Ave, , Chicago, Illinois
One of the most recognized landmarks along Chicago’s lakefront, Navy Pier is also one of the most and visited tourist destinations in Chicago.

Stop At: Clarence F. Buckingham Fountain
301 S. Columbus Dr, Grant Park, Chicago, Illinois
On July 6, 1959, a small barge ferried Queen Elizabeth II from the HMY Britannia anchored outside of Monroe Harbor to the aptly named Queen’s Landing for a 13-hour royal visit spectacular. As we pass this historic site Buckingham Fountain comes into view. (Pro Tip: this is a great time for a photo op.) Buckingham Fountain, one of the world’s largest fountains, was designed as a focal centerpiece for Grant Park. According to the Chicago Park District website, John Philips Souza himself conducted his band in the playing of “Pomp and Circumstance” before an audience of 50,000 people during the fountain’s dedication in August 1927. Contrary to conventional wisdom, Buckingham fountain is not related to Buckingham Palace or the Royal Family. The fountain was actually donated by Chicago art patron and philanthropist, Kate Buckingham in memorial honor of her brother Clearance Buckingham.
