Your 40-foot eco-tour pontoon departs from either the South Jersey Marina (Cape May) or from The Wetlands Institute (in Stone Harbor).
The salt marsh is home to over 400 species of birds and more than 300 species of fish, so be prepared to see a lot of interesting birds.

Not only is it so pretty and peaceful riding on The Skimmer, you also get to learn so much about the salt marsh, the environment, and these animals.
It's not just birds and fish you'll see. Plenty of other animals call the salt marsh in Cape May home.

Name one person who doesn't get excited about the prospect of seeing dolphins.
And while spotting the animals and learning all about the area is super fun, it's also just nice to be out on a boat.
