An extra-deep design lets you sink in and fully immerse, while a simple electric motor lets you cruise at your own pace.

Boat Design & Features
DESIGNED TO LET YOU GO ALL IN.
Our boats are crafted with extra attention to what matters most: a deeper, roomier tub and a generous volume of water. Warmth comes from an onboard wood stove—creating a true Nordic-style soak that makes all the difference.
Music
The boats have a Bluetooth speaker so you can sync up your favorite playlist (relaxing or not)
Extra-deep for full immersion
Our hot tub boats are built to be truly deep—about three feet—so you can sink in and fully relax. With roughly 500 gallons of water, the low-profile tub sits right at water level, so you feel part of the scene while staying wrapped in warm comfort.
Fireside heat on the water
Heat comes from an onboard wood-fired stove, creating steady, cozy warmth throughout your cruise. We use efficient firewood that burns hot and clean, and you can fine-tune the temperature as you go—bringing a subtle, fireside atmosphere to your soak.
Easy to drive
Learn to drive our boats in minutes. All it takes is a tiller for steering, and a simple on/off switch and forward/reverse knob for stopping and starting. With a maximum speed of three miles per hour and protection from hefty fenders on each side, safety is built in.
Built-in storage, within reach
The boat includes easy-access storage for drinks and small items, but it’s not waterproof—expect a few splashes. For anything you want to keep 100% dry, use the dry bag we provide.
The same Dutch-built, wood-fired design born in Nordic spa towns — now warming the water beside Boston's skyline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this really the only hot tub boat in Boston?
Yes — Boston Hot Tub Boats is the only hot tub boat experience in Boston, and the setting is unlike anywhere else on Earth. You soak beside Logan Airport with the full Boston skyline in front of you and jets gliding in low overhead.
What is a hot tub boat cruise like?
It’s a private, 2-hour cruise where your group soaks in 104°F water while drifting across calm, sheltered water off Winthrop. You steer the boat yourselves — it’s easy — with the full skyline ahead and planes passing low toward Logan. Part spa, part spectacle.
Where do you launch from, and is there parking?
We launch from Atlantis Marina, 550 Pleasant St, Winthrop, MA 02152. Wait at the top of the ramp and our crew will greet you and walk you down. Parking is free — in the marina lot and on nearby streets.
How much does it cost?
$493 on weekdays and $557 on weekends and holidays — all-in, with tax and the booking fee already included. That’s per boat (not per person), for up to 6 guests.
Is the boat private or shared?
Always private. One booking is your whole boat for up to 6 guests — you’ll never share with strangers.
Do I need any boating experience?
None. We give you a quick, friendly demo, and the calm, protected water makes the boat easy and safe to steer. If you can steer a shopping cart, you’re set.
Is it safe? What's the water like?
Very. We stay in calm, protected water away from open-harbor chop and ferry traffic, so it’s smooth and stable. Every boat is U.S. Coast Guard–approved and carries a life jacket for all six guests.
Can we really see planes?
Yes — it’s part of what makes it unreal. Atlantis Marina sits right beside Logan Airport, so you’ll watch jets glide in low overhead on final approach. It’s one of the best plane-watching views in Greater Boston, from your own hot tub.
How hot is the water — and can we choose the temperature?
Totally your call. We ask every group their preference and set the water to it — cozy and steamy up to 104°F in winter, or kept gentler and more refreshing on hot summer days. It’s your private boat, your perfect temperature.
Do you operate year-round, and what about the weather?
Year-round — it’s even more magical on a crisp, steamy winter day. If conditions turn unsafe (lightning, high winds), we’ll contact you to reschedule. Adding Trip Protection at checkout lets you get a refund if you ever need one.
Who needs to be the Designated Captain?
One person in your group (21+) acts as Designated Captain. They sign the Captain waiver, upload a valid driver’s license, and don’t drink alcohol before or during the cruise. Everyone else can fully relax.
Can we bring children?
All ages are welcome. Children under 12 must wear a properly fitting, U.S. Coast Guard–approved life jacket the entire time on the barge and boat. Adult life jackets are provided — please bring child-sized ones to ensure a proper fit.
What's included?
Bottled water (1 per guest), a Bluetooth speaker, waterproof phone cases, floating cup holders, a dry bag for your valuables, individual changing tents supervised by our crew, and your private boat for up to 6.
What should we bring?
A towel, a swimsuit, and your own cups or tumblers if you’re bringing drinks. In cool weather, add a hat or earmuffs and warm layers for before and after. The Designated Captain should bring a valid driver’s license.
Can we bring drinks or food?
BYOB-friendly — bring drinks in cans, plastic, or metal (no glass, no hard alcohol). No food onboard, please. No cannabis, smoking, or vaping.
How do I book, and what's your cancellation policy?
Book online up to a year ahead (and as late as ~15 hours before). Cancel or reschedule free up to 7 days before; within 7 days a $150 deposit applies. Add Trip Protection at checkout for a refund anytime with 24+ hours’ notice.
Do you sell gift cards?
Yes — digital gift cards in any amount, delivered instantly, and they never expire. A memorable gift for birthdays, anniversaries, and the holidays.
