Important announcement:
 
 
Dear Friends,

Door County Sunset Concert Cruises have been suspended due to semi-retirement.  Semi?  Although Grace and I are retiring from the concert cruises, we will be involved in many different projects and new challenges so please continue to watch for announcements on this website.
 

We would like to take this opportunity to send a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who attended our cruises during the past 26 years. Countless thank-you notes, complimentary feedback and great press reviews told us that our cruises were a welcome  addition to the Door County entertainment scene.  We have so  enjoyed meeting and entertaining thousands who have come back year after year for first-rate entertainment and great times aboard the Island ClipperGerhard and Grace Bernhard.


 

What's Next?  Grace and I are looking forward to new projects and new challenges here in beautiful Door County, Wisconsin. We would love to hear from you or, better yet, see you again in Door County!

 
 
Gerhard and Grace Bernhard

 

Special Honors For Sunset Concert Cruises:

We are thrilled that the prestigious Coastal Living Magazine has featured Door County Sunset Concert Cruises as one of the Top Ten Sunset Cruises. The other nine listings were of cruises operating on much larger ships and on either the Atlantic or Pacific coasts, Hawaii or Mexico. We are the only 'inland' cruise featured and we are grateful for the honor. The story has since developed a life of its own as dozens of newspapers have published "stories on the story". If you Google the words: Coastal Living "concert cruises" you can currently find links to over 50 stories on the subject.

Sunset Concert Cruises feature narrated scenic cruising, fine buffet dining, exceptional live entertainment offering Jazz, Swing, Dixieland and Folk concerts while touring the waters surrounding the Door Peninsula.
