Cape May Whale and Dolphin Watching Cruise 3 hr

Set out from Cape May for a three-hour cruise in search of dolphins, whales, and the wildlife of the Atlantic coast. From the water, the shoreline opens into a broad seascape, with chances to spot bottlenose dolphins and migrating baleen whales.

Your Cape May whale and dolphin watching cruise begins near shore, then heads offshore, typically 3 to 15 miles, and toward Delaware Bay and the Atlantic. An onboard guide or marine biologist shares insights into local nature and history, helping you identify marine mammals and seasonal birdlife. The experience also includes hands-on scientific learning and an interactive touch tank with live local sea creatures. Possible sightings include humpback, fin, minke, and critically endangered right whales, along with seabirds, sharks, sea turtles, and rays; wildlife sightings can vary.

With parking included and food and drinks available for purchase, it’s an easy way to spend time on the water while learning about the region’s marine life. Book your Cape May whale and dolphin watching cruise and keep watch for the next fin or fluke on the horizon.
