Join Wilmington Water Tours as we cruise up the Northeast Cape Fear River to the upper reaches of the black water system of this storied river. Captain Doug Springer will share his extensive knowledge of the history of the area while you take in the flora and fauna along the river banks. We will cruise through the Castle Hayne Aquifer and by the bluffs of the Rose Hill Plantation. Visit our bar for a freshly brewed cup of coffee or the best Bloody Mary on the river. This is a great cruise for photographers, birders and nature lovers. Bring your camera to capture the untouched beauty of this early morning adventure. Boarding 15 minutes prior.
