A Sunset Cruise on San Francisco Bay with The Angel Island Tiburon Ferry is the perfect way to end your day.
A Sunset Cruise on the Angel Island Tiburon Ferry is the perfect way to get your Negative Ions and have some fun!

What is odorless, colorless, tasteless, and good for your health and mood?  Negative Ions - those invisible molecules we inhale in abundance in “fresh air” environments associated with the mountains, waterfalls, and beaches.

Think about how you felt the last time you went to the beach - while just the change in surroundings itself can boost our mood - once Negative Ions from the air in these “fresh” surroundings reach our bloodstream, they are believed to produce biochemical reactions that increase levels of the mood chemical serotonin, helping to alleviate depression, relieve stress, and boost our daytime energy. 

While I am not condoning any of the claims countless advertisements for products out there make for products that produce Negative Ions in your home, shower, office, etc. - I do believe in the positive effects these invisible forces of nature have on our bodies.  One of the best and easiest ways to get a dose of Negative Ions is to simply take a walk on the beach.  Another great option if you are in the Bay Area is to take a ferry ride on San Francisco Bay to Angel Island State Park or a Sunset Cruise with the Angel Island Tiburon Ferry in Tiburon, CA .

For around just $20.00 a person you can “Getaway Feeling without going Away” and a nice dose of Negative Ions in the process!   In addition to getting a “Negative Ion fix” these Sunset Cruises are a ton of fun - you can bring along your own picnic dinner and your favorite beverage to enjoy with someone special and take in some of the most spectacular sights the Bay Area has to offer. 

On a clear day the San Francisco skyline sparkles like a string of silvery jewels, and the unforgettable sight of the majestic Golden Gate Bridge from the middle of the San Francisco Bay will be with you long after the Cruise is over.  Ahhh I can almost feel the positive power of those Negative Ions going to work just thinking about it - Bon Voyage!  Aprilanne
