WEEKEND GETAWAYS

Manokin River Cruise

Pristine waters, bordered by marsh and woodland call you to glide down the Manokin River. It’s hard to believe this much nature, and so little development, is this close to the Baltimore/ Washington corridor.  You will see more hawks and eagles than people, more wildlife than cars.  Experience the quiet comfort of the Eastern Shore at it’s best.

Janes Island Water Trails

Paddle the hidden water trails of Janes Island.  Start with easy paddling in protected waters within a scenic park.  For more adventure, we can guide you across open water to an island of sandy beaches, far from tourism, close to crabs and a working water town.

Frenchtown Island

Paddle inside passages, or exposed waters with unending views of open water and distant islands..  Have lunch on sandy beaches as you soak in the sun’s rays.  Frenchtown is a hidden treasure few explore.  Spend the night at the marina or at a nearby park.  Enjoy the ambiance of a quaint working watermen town, and place an order for fresh crabs right at the boat.
