7-night Chesapeake Bay Cruise

The ship is 226 feet long and was built by Chesapeake Shipbuilding in Salisbury, MD. American Independence offers a comfortable exploration along the U.S.'s East Coast. Its small size allows for travel through the many narrow rivers and shallow bays of the Eastern Seaboard. Spacious lounges are gathering points for cocktails, entertainment, or an afternoon lecture with panoramic views of the passing scenery, and the dining room offers a scrumptious regional menu that changes daily. 

Ship Highlights

• Experience breathtaking scenery from the privacy of your stateroom
• Well equipped fitness room
• A spacious seating area on Sun deck to relax and unwind yourself
