Maurice River Cruises offers a relaxing and informative two-hour leisure cruise along the Maurice River. Captain Dave serves as a knowledgeable and gracious host, providing a wealth of information about local nature, history, and the area of Millville. The scenic ride frequently features sightings of bald eagles, ospreys, egrets, turtles, and occasionally an otter, alongside views of bluffs, marshes, and historic sites. The cruises are a nice way to spend a beautiful day, with scheduled departures including a Wednesday sunset cruise and afternoon trips on Fridays and Saturdays. Parking is available for free in the municipal lot directly across from the boat dock. The experience is generally quiet and enjoyable, though those with very young children may want to plan accordingly for the adult-oriented narration. It is a lovely and interesting ride, considered a true find in South Jersey.
We had a nice quiet & relaxing time while learning some interesting facts about Millville & the Maurice River history. The captain & 1st mate were both great!
