  1. Two-hour kayak rental in Cape May, Cape May1

    1. Two-hour kayak rental in Cape May

    4.8· 9 reviews· 2 hours

    Two hours on the water renting single kayaks, with options for children, ideal for viewing local wildlife like Ospreys in the coastal salt marsh.

    We chose the self-guided tour featuring both single and tandem kayaks. Following the advice to head left, we paddled around the marina and reached the railroad bridge. The wind made our outward journey challenging, but we had an easier return. It’s virtually impossible to get lost. We encountered American oystercatchers and ospreys along the way. The gear was excellent, accommodating our varying skill levels.lindamM430VH

    Four hours on the Miss Chris — a chance to catch flounder, sea bass, and more, with crew assistance for beginners and families.

    This was a fantastic experience. Everything was well-organized, the boat departed on schedule, and we had multiple stops. The staff was friendly, supportive, and very knowledgeable.Rana-Loutfy

    Two hours on a spacious vessel — dinner, dolphin sightings, and sunset views over Delaware Bay.

    I saw dolphins, which was exciting, but we were moved to a different day for the tour. We had planned on a nice meal, but instead, we ended up with pizza and hot dogs. I never received a refund for the meal I was supposed to have.E7760VMkenm

    4.4· 697 reviews· 3 hours

    Three-hour cruise into Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean, with expert narration and sightings of marine wildlife such as dolphins and whales.

    While the whales were elusive, the dolphins were very active. A big thanks to the captain for extending our time on the water in hopes of spotting the whales.Daniel_M

    Three hours aboard a spacious boat with an experienced crew—includes fishing gear, assistance, and bait without extra charges.

    The staff was fantastic—very helpful and enjoyable to be around. The children had a great time catching a large bucket of fish. I highly recommend this tour.Amanda_P
