2 Hr – Sunset Cruise

Wonderful sunset cruise in OCNJ bay

VERIFIED

Captain Frederick was a great host to our 3 generation family including my mom, my husband, my daughter and myself :) We enjoyed seeing the sights of the bay including Osprey nests as well as bayside inlets and magnificent homes. The sunset destination was spectacular! As “beach people” we appreciated seeing OC from a bay perspective and will do it again! Highly recommend 😎
