We had a great time at Skimmer's Salt Marsh Safari! My daughter was doing her school science project on the natural habitat of the salt marsh and we learned so much on this tour. The crew was absolutely amazing. The were very knowledgeable and went out of their way to point things out to my daughter. I would highly recommend... More

I took this cruise last year and had such a great experience that I made a point of doing it again this year. Captain Ed and Captain Ginny presented a great deal of information in a humorous and entertaining way. I got to see a lot of neat birds and came away with memories of beautiful sights that will stay... More

We took a cruise with our six-year-old granddaughter last Fall, and were completely delighted with the boat ride and experiences. Ed and Ginny were great -- they really gave our granddaughter a "hands-on" experience and discussed the fish and plant life in the salt marsh. Adults had a leisurely, informative time and enjoyed the bird sightings and sunset! The Safari... More

Loved this cruise! Was every thing I expected and more. Great for bird watching and nature photography or just a peaceful friendly cruise with a very knowledgeable and entertaining crew. Can't wait to do it again.

It was a beautiful day and they pointed out several new bird species for us. Even if you are not a birder, I... More

I and my sister were looking for something to do when we found the Skimmer. While neither of us are bird watcher's (which is what the Skimmer is primarily geared for) the ride and experience were wonderful. We went on the first morning ride during low tide. We learned all about the bird life (egrets, ospreys, etc.) and the sea... More

We spent a great two hours on the Skimmer last Saturday morning. The air was crisp, the sunshine was beautiful, and we totally enjoyed our tour of the waters. Captains Ed and Jenny are both extremely knowledgeable and constantly keep their eyes trained for birds and other points of interest for us to see. The two hour cruise may be... More
