Tour The Thimbles
First discovered in 1614 by Adrien Block, these islands were used for everything from farming to quarrying granite, from bootlegging to hiding Captain Kidd’s treasure. Captain Kidd sailed here in 1665…you can still feel his presence today.
Join Captains Mike, Justin, Bryan and the crew of the Sea Mist as you tour the famous Thimble Islands off the coast of Branford, Connecticut. For nearly sixty years, 1000s of seafarers have enjoyed tours and charters of the Long Island Sound with Thimble Island Cruise.

What better way to celebrate 40 years on the water than to have your own beer made?
Having an ice cold “Sea Mist IPA” on a Thimble Island Cruise aboard The Sea Mist is a match made in heaven. If you can’t make it onto the boat just pick some up at the Stony Creek Package Store and enjoy it wherever you are.
