MARINE MAMMAL SIGHTINGINGGUARANTEEDPrior to 1993, if you went whale and dolphin watching in New Jersey and did not see anything, you were told "too bad, should have been here yesterday." In 1993, we started our quest in better Customer Service by offering the first Marine Mammals Sightings Guaranteed in the state of NJ. If we do not sight marine mammals (whales or dolphins or porpoise) we offer a free pass for another trip in the future. Unlike our competitors- we have plenty of space and have never turned away a free pass, our free pass never expires, and we do not believe in one dolphin "getting us off the hook (for the Guarantee)."
ABOUT THE CAPE MAY FLEET In 1993, long time whale and dolphin watching as well as sightseeing Captain Jeff Stewart started a new business, called the Cape May Whale Watcher. The day the Cape May Whale Watcher and Captain Jeff Stewart came to Cape May, NJ, a new standard was set for marine mammal watching, eco-tourism, dinner cruising, sightseeing, charter and party boats in Southern New Jersey. He set the bar high, and to date no one has surpassed this original standard of the largest and the fastest boat with the Marine Mammal Sighting Guarantee.
THE CAPE MAY WHALE WATCHER,our original boat, is all aluminum, making for a very strong, yet light weight hull. This coupled with her 4 diesel engines producing 1600HP push her to speeds in excess of 25 knots. Fast is important. We may go slow when in search mode, but when the report comes in and we are off to the races, speed can mean the difference between 5 minutes of viewing and a half an hour or more of viewing.
So, since 1993, our policy has been there is no such thing as getting off the hook for our guarantee. We look for the largest possible group of dolphins or the most whales in an area and maximize your time on the best possible sightings we have available to us on a trip by trip basis. The best guarantee means the best value.
Back by popular demand for 2015, the Sunset Lighthouse Cruise, also known as the Wine Cruise, features two lighthouses, Cape May and Brandywine Shoal, an offshore lighthouse in Delaware Bay, along with a Wine Tasting by a local vineyard. While you enjoy the local flavors of Summer or Fall you can enjoy the history of the Delaware Bay and the Lighthouses at sunset, as the Lighthouses come to life for the evening. We also enjoy dolphin watching along the way.
Sole sentinels or lonely lights, whatever your idea of a lighthouse these romantic icons of the coast stand as a testament to our conquering the mighty sea. The coastal lighthouses of New Jersey are famous for a number of reasons, including their roles in the success of major ports likePhiladelphia and their strategic value during times of war. The lives saved by these lighthouses are countless both in history and on a daily basis.
Trip includes FREE Pizza and Hot Dogs, a little dolphin watching, hopefully a sunset and of course the FIREWORKS DISPLAY. Also available on board the Ship, we have our cash bar with Fountain Sodas, Bottled Water, Hot Coffee, Cocoa and Tea, Ice Cream, Snacks, Wine by the Glass, Draft Beer and Mixed Cocktails.
Enjoy an all day adventure to the waters off Atlantic City, NJ. As we rest comfortably offshore, you will enjoy our catered breakfast and lunch as we view all the aerial acrobatics of "Thunder Over The Boardwalk"
