Come with us on a relaxing and safe cruise along the lower Connecticut River, which has been designated by The Nature Conservancy as "One of the Last Great Places". This is a great opportunity for everyone to enjoy the beauty of this pristine river in our own backyard. Our cruise will take us past stunning sights such as Essex Harbor and Coves, The Great Meadow, Hamburg Cove, Joshua Rock, Nott Island, and the towns of Old Lyme, Lyme, Essex, Deep River, and Gillette Castle.

Along the way, we will also have the chance to see local wildlife such as Bald Eagles and Osprey (April thru August), and our knowledgeable Captain and/or crew will provide fascinating commentary on everything we see. Don't forget to bring your favorite binoculars or borrow a pair of ours for an even closer look at the stunning scenery and wildlife. Join us for a memorable and unique experience on the Lower Connecticut River.
