Our special events are planned around the season, holidays, city celebrations, our area partnerships and just for fun!

If something fun is happening on the water – or the sky – we’ll get you the best seat in town to enjoy it. Our Rock ‘N River cruises are a unique form of Annapolis entertainment and our Wednesday Night Races Cruises are one of the most fun things to do in Annapolis. Watermark has fun every day and these special cruises are all about fun.
