Scoters & Seals Cruise
Advertisement
Join us for a 2.5-hour cruise of the waters around the mouth of the Delaware Bay aboard the Thelma Dale IV. The boat features a heated cabin, benches along the lower deck rail, and a top deck for open-air viewing. We will visit the two stone breakwaters and the ice breakers in search of common and rare waterfowl and seabirds including gulls, cormorants, gannets, loons, scoters, eiders and with luck a Harlequin Duck or Razorbill. We also have a good chance of seeing Harbor and Gray Seals that regularly haul out on the rocks. Restrooms are available on board, and coolers (with off-centered ales from Dogfish Head) are welcome!
We are coordinating these boat trips with low tide, which will offer better views of the seals hauled out on the lower breakwater rocks.
Our basecamp for winter birding is the Dogfish INN, which is a 4-minute walk from the departure dock at Fisherman's Wharf. Book your room today! More info here ➡️ https://delmarvabirding.com/the-dogfish-inn-2027/
