The sunset was lovely! Captain Mike was lovely. My friends and I loved spending the evening learning about Wilmington history and seeing the beautiful sunset on the water! Highly recommend!

Cape Fear River Boats offers a wide variety of scenic water tours from historic downtown Wilmington. We offer daily 1-hour scenic tours through which our experienced captains discuss the history, legends, and culture of Wilmington while cruising along the Cape Fear River. Sites include the Battleship USS North Carolina, the murals and buildings of downtown Wilmington, Eagle Island, and the NC State Port. Our newest boat, the Henrietta, can hold up to 100 people for tours and is available for private charter. The Henrietta boasts A/C, a full-service bar, and multiple decks (indoor and outdoor) for viewing the Cape Fear and downtown Wilmington. We also offer twice monthly 4-hour nature tours to the pristine natural environment of the Black River. This is a photographer’s dream! Whether you're a local or visiting, we have an experience for you!

The captain had all kinds of information about the area. Friendly staff. There was seating upstairs and downstairs was enclosed with table and chairs to sit at. Nice little tour for the money.
