Black Water Adventure Aboard Wilmington Water Tours

The Perfect Morning Adventure!

Join us as we head up the Northeast Cape Fear River to the upper reaches of the black water system of this mysterious river.

This is the ideal way to spend an unforgettable morning. Captain Doug loves our rivers and enjoys sharing his knowledge of the area with you. This has become our signature cruise and Captain Doug’s favorite for 16+ years! The Northeast Cape Fear River is still largely unpopulated and looks much as it did when Wilmington was colonized in the late 1600s. We cruise through the Castle Hayne Aquifer and by the bluffs of the Rose Hill Plantation.

Start your day on the water in search of wildlife and many of our feathered friends while listening to interesting commentary about the rich history of this area. This close to two-hour cruise is a rewarding experience as you learn about Wilmington and our precious wildlife while enjoying a peaceful morning ride on our safe and relaxing catamaran. Visit our full bar for a freshly brewed cup of coffee or for the best Bloody Mary on the river.

Photographers birders and nature buffs love the variety of wildlife and native plants that adorn the river banks. You may possibly see osprey alligators sea turtles and river otters just to name a few. Bring your camera so you can capture the untouched beauty of this early morning adventure.
