  Incredible experience!

  This trip was genuinely fantastic. The guides exhibited an impressive depth of knowledge about the birds and showed their enthusiasm by sharing a wealth of information on their habits. I'd rate it 10/10 and would definitely do it again.

  Highly recommend! Very knowledgable about the birds in the area.

  I strongly recommend this tour. The guide possessed extensive knowledge about the local birds and led us to ideal spots where they were congregating. Their expertise in identifying and locating the birds was impressive. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would happily book with them again if we return to the area.

  Perfect Birding Excursion

  This was an amazing experience. No sooner had we departed from the dock than the captain highlighted an Eastern Kingfisher, which was a first for me. He expertly guided us towards it as it perched in a tree. For approximately two hours, he took us to various spots known for bird sightings, identifying each one and allowing ample time for photography. Additionally, he ventured further out upon hearing about dolphins, and we were not disappointed as they played in the water alongside bald eagles. By the end of the trip, I had spotted around 40 different birds. It was an ideal afternoon for both novice and seasoned birders.

  10 out of 10

  We thoroughly enjoyed our tour! It's important to mention that it can get quite cold and windy on the water, so be sure to dress accordingly if you visit during the off-season. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, ensuring we experienced everything there was to see. Their passion for birding really enhanced the experience. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in birds. I also appreciated the availability of loaner binoculars.

  Great experience

  I’ve been on the Osprey birding cruise three times in the past and have always enjoyed it. This time I went with my daughter, and we had a fantastic experience! Despite the cold and wind, we spotted many birds.

  Wonderful Birding Tour

  This was a fantastic 3-hour birdwatching tour in the wetlands. I highly recommend it for both bird enthusiasts and those new to birding. It's a great way to learn about the ecology of the Cape May marshes while observing incredible bird species thanks to the insights from a knowledgeable captain and a naturalist on board. Thank you!

  Another great experience on the Osprey!

  The Osprey consistently provides an excellent experience, regardless of the weather conditions. The captain is knowledgeable about the local birds and ensures that everyone gets a chance to see them. We return each year!
