Here in Oregon, the legend of Bigfoot is alive and well. Oregonians know that the big guy calls the Pacific Northwest home, and you’ll find all sorts of homages to the Big Guy here — from the Bigfoot Trap in Southern Oregon built by hopeful Bigfoot believers to the Bigfoot Tavern in Crescent, Oregon. Our favorite way to celebrate the massive Sasquatch, however, is on a Bigfoot Cruise via Portland Spirit Cruises. This river cruise not only includes a cameo by Bigfoot himself, it also tours some of the most legendary places in all of Oregon.

Portland, Oregon is a legendary place, full of legendary architecture, natural wonders, and, well, legends.

Are you ready for a legendary adventure in the Beaver State? The Bigfoot Explorer Adventure Cruise is an adventure fit for a Sasquatch… and it’s something you can only experience here in Oregon!

A few things to keep in mind: guests are welcome to bring food and drink on board. The Explorer is an open-air boat and not climate controlled, so dress for weather. Please note that river conditions vary and may result in frequent, sustained turbulent motion along with varied weather. There is a bathroom on-board. Unfortunately, the boat is not wheelchair accessible, however Portland Spirit offers other adventures, such as the Brunch Cruise, that are wheelchair accessible.
