    Two-hour boat ride through the Delaware Bay to view New Jersey's historic lighthouses, guided by local insights.

    The tour was a wonderful experience led by an informative captain who provided commentary throughout the journey. The crew was courteous and accommodating, and we were pleasantly surprised to find that both breakfast and lunch were provided. This cruise is perfect for lighthouse enthusiasts; we visited nine lighthouses, including a lighthouse ruin, all while enjoying a comfortable atmosphere.mariebY1720ZZ
