In prior years, we had a ship-viewing tour available to walk along pierside of the vessels and take pictures.  In 2022, it is unconfirmed if this option will be available.

Unfortunately we are unable to disclose this information until the week of the event. This is primarily due to security requirements.  You can find the list of ships in previous years and when released at https://lafleetweek.com/events_schedule/ships/.

Ship tours are FREE and no advance reservations are necessary. Walk-up visitors are able to take tours on a first-come, first-served basis. Ship tours begin at 10:00 am and typically run through 4:30 pm.
