What a nice end to our Memorial Day weekend. We were pleasantly surprised to have such a nice birding excursion on The Skimmer! I saw great reviews here on Trip Advisor and just knew I could trust my fellow reviewers on this one. We were lucky to have a small, intimate trip and Capt. Ginny and Captain Ed really gave... More

Cap't's Ginny & Ed will give you a most enjoyable and educational trip through the marsh which is teeming with many creatures you didn't even know existed! It is so refreshing to be on board with such a knowledgeable couple and you can tell they truly love their work. We just got back from our second trip.

Really, I was so impressed with this trip. I think it is the 'safari' word that makes me think it was a bit cheesy. But it far exceeded my hopes. The guides were informed and knowledgeable about the salt marsh and the general area. We saw nesting Oyster catchers feeding their chicks, two kinds of loons, several ospry nests and... More

We (two senior couples) had a very enjoyable experience. Our fist visit was in May of 2012 and rated it as "excellent" and worth a second visit. Both times were in conjunction with the annual shore bird festival. Co-captains, Ginny and Ed, are a lot of fun and want each guest to learn as much as possible. This was our... More

We had a great time at Skimmer's Salt Marsh Safari! My daughter was doing her school science project on the natural habitat of the salt marsh and we learned so much on this tour. The crew was absolutely amazing. The were very knowledgeable and went out of their way to point things out to my daughter. I would highly recommend... More

I took this cruise last year and had such a great experience that I made a point of doing it again this year. Captain Ed and Captain Ginny presented a great deal of information in a humorous and entertaining way. I got to see a lot of neat birds and came away with memories of beautiful sights that will stay... More

We took a cruise with our six-year-old granddaughter last Fall, and were completely delighted with the boat ride and experiences. Ed and Ginny were great -- they really gave our granddaughter a "hands-on" experience and discussed the fish and plant life in the salt marsh. Adults had a leisurely, informative time and enjoyed the bird sightings and sunset! The Safari... More

Loved this cruise! Was every thing I expected and more. Great for bird watching and nature photography or just a peaceful friendly cruise with a very knowledgeable and entertaining crew. Can't wait to do it again.

We went on the Monday evening marine life discovery cruise where a trawling net is dragged then brought aboard. The fish, invertebrates and plants netted are examined and discussed. All the children were trilled including a number of younger children that were on the cruise with us. The Skimmer is run by a husband and wife team and with the... More
