Sail Around Cape Island

The sun. The sky. The sea. It’s me.

If that’s how you feel, you’ll want to cruise the waters around Cape May the next time you come to our NJ bed and breakfast. You’re in luck. There are a few different ways you can do that.

Bridge open

Cruise the Cape May Canal.

The Cape May Whale Watcher offers two hour cruises around Cape May Island. You’ll glide through the Cape May Canal, head down the Delaware Bay to the Atlantic Ocean, then back into Cape May Harbor. You’ll learn interesting tales and little known facts about the history of Cape May, and enjoy a beautiful perspective – views of our little Victorian town from the water. There is a good chance you’ll spot whales, too.

Another fun way to get out on the water is to hop on board the Cape May-Lewes Ferry. This is a great way to travel to and from Cape May, but it also makes a terrific day trip. Cape Henlopen State Park is a short walk from the Delaware ferry terminal. Walk miles of sandy beaches or nature trails, or spend some time peering into salt-water aquariums. The Prime Hook State Wildlife Management Area, to the north, is a wonderful spot for birdwatching.

Dinner Cruises aboard the Spirit of Cape May take place every evening from mid May through mid September. Sit back with good food as you watch the setting sun make our Victorian town glow. For more information about these cruises, please call 800-786-5445 or 609-884-5445.

People have been traveling to Cape May NJ by ship for over four hundred years. Let 2010 be the year you experience this lovely journey. Then share your adventures over a glass of wine back at our Cape May bed and breakfast.
