Anniversary Cruises
Celebrate your special milestone anniversary by escaping on a second honeymoon with a San Juan Island sailboat cruise with your sweetheart. Not married yet? Imagine yourself on bent knee on a remote beach while the sun glints on the ring she’ll treasure forever.
Memorial Cruises
Mark the passing of a loved one with a memorial at sea. In life, they had a love affair with the sea. Let the departed become one with the sea by scattering their ashes to the wind and waves. Share your fondest memories of the departed with their closest family and friends on the healing waters.
Reunion Cruises in the San Juan Islands
Reunite with Mom and Dad or your favorite aunt, uncle, and cousin for a week you’ll never forget.

Mother’s Day Cruise
Show Mom how much you love her by treating her to a dream holiday cruise.
Mom brought you into this world. She nurtured you and cared for you. She wiped away your tears and hugged you like only a mother can. Allow the crew of Diminuendo to pamper her for a few days to show your appreciation for all she does. She’ll love the quiet of gliding along under sail and sleeping in a quiet cove.
