Captain Tim and his wife have created something special with their intimate tours along the Swansboro Intracoastal Waterway. Guests consistently praise this couple as warm, knowledgeable hosts who share local history while making everyone feel welcome. The well-maintained boat provides easy access and comfortable cruising, whether you're celebrating a birthday, planning a wedding ceremony, or just looking for a peaceful evening on the water. The wildlife viewing is a major highlight. Dolphins frequently swim close to the boat, and you'll likely spot egrets, pelicans, and gulls against dramatic sunset skies. Many visitors become repeat customers, returning year after year for the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful scenery. The full moon cruises seem particularly popular, offering that extra touch of magic when clouds part to reveal moonlight dancing on the water. It's reasonably priced and perfect for families, with hosts who are especially kind to children.
This was our second year doing the sunset Christmas cruise. Highly recommend it for a date night.
