Feb. 29 only comes around every four years, and Argosy Cruises is making the most of this unique day on the calendar with its Leaping Locks! Dinner Cruise. This scenic sail through the Ballard Locks -- which links the saltwater of Puget Sound with the fresh water of Lake Union - will provide stunning views of Seattle in addition to a fantastic buffet dinner and live music. And maybe romance will be in the air, because based on tradition, Leap Year is the one day when women can propose to their loves. So set sail for an entertaining night of food and fun with Argosy Cruises.

This isn't just a cruise. It's a four-hour adventure that begins when you climb aboard the Argosy ship, climate-controlled for comfort with two cash bars. Soak up the beautiful coast scenery as the narrated sail takes you from Puget Sound to Blake Island. Once on the island, passengers disembark to enjoy an appetizer of clams and nectar, then visit the Tillicum Village longhouse for a buffet meal including salmon baked on cedar stakes in the traditional Northwest Coast native style. At the end of the meal, enjoy a spellbinding performance highlighting the myth, magic and dances of the local Salish Indians, complete with high-tech effects. There's even a chance to explore the island a bit before heading back on the return cruise. Learn More
