Call for information on booking large parties
Always dress accordingly • Be keen and check the weather conditions for your scheduled trip or call the shop and ask for the expected forecast. On average the temperature is 10-15 degrees cooler depending on the distance to the viewing grounds. An extra jacket or rain gear may be desired.
Sun Protection • During the season, even on cooler days, the sunlight is intensified as it reflects off the water. We advise the use of sunscreen and hats during your morning and afternoon voyages.
Motion Sickness • If you or a passenger in your party is prone to motion sickness it's not a bad idea to invest in medication to prevent it from occurring. This can be purchased here at our boat or at several common pharmaceutical drug stores. Taking one the night before and one the morning of you trip, tends to do the trick.
Gratuities • Our trained crew is one of the key components that keep our trips running smoothly day-after-day. Our crew depends on the generosity of our customers to earn a living; similar to waiters and waitresses. There is a lot of behind the scenes duties that are performed by our staff to keep our boats clean and well stocked for every departure, as well as the knowledge and education provided throughout each trip by our talented Naturalists. So please don't forget to recognize their hard work and ambitions.
Are the boats Handicap Accessible? Our crew does the best they can to assist handicapped and wheelchair bound passengers on board. Our pier and ramp make it easy to gain access to our dock, and the crew help make it possible to get wheel chairs and disabled passengers safely on board. Please call ahead for more info so our crew will be ready to provide extra assistance.
Is there food and beverages on the boats? Yes. The boat features a full galley that serves breakfast, lunch, snacks and beverages for the duration of your trip. Our vessel also includes a heated cabin, booth seating for dining, as well as restrooms.
Can we bring alcohol on board? No, you may not. We have own liquor license, and offers a simple selection of choice beers and or liquors for nearly all trips and cruises. Note - You must be of Massachusetts legal age with valid I.D to purchase and consume alcoholic beverages on board.
