About
This summer we will be offering Full Moon tours. They will be on June 21 for the Strawberry moon, July 20 Buck moon, August 18 for the Sturgeon moon and September 17 for the Harvest moon. You can book on line or call for reservations.We will still tour even if it is cloudy, as seeing the moonbeams through breaks in the clouds can be beautiful. If conditions are cloudy and no moon is visible, that is a risk you have to be aware of.

Dress in layers
Even summer nights can get cool near the water, so bring a light jacket or sweater.
Arrive early to catch twilight
Arriving before nightfall lets you enjoy the changing light and helps with safe boarding.
