Seal Watch Adventure Cruise

Orleans through Little and Big Pleasant Bay to Chatham Harbor

As you travel from Orleans to Chatham Harbor, you will pass by marshes and islands with history – one with rumored pirate treasure. On this Seal Watch Adventure Cruise the dunes of  Nauset Beach, the Cape Cod National Seashore and beyond, an Atlantic Ocean inlet and bustling harbor come into are view.  Arriving in Chatham Harbor, you will visit with the local seal colony who are swimming in groups or might be hauled out on a sandbar, sunbathing and “singing”.  On this adventure, you’ll stop by the Chatham Fish Pier to check if the local fishing boats are offloading their catch of the day, an interesting and educational process. On the journey back to Orleans sit back and relax, taking in the wonderful scenery of Pleasant Bay.

Private Charters, just for you and your party along with the captain, are very personal and interactive experiences. You are welcome to bring along beverages and snacks. There will be an appropriate time for refreshments, the captain will discuss this prior to departure.
