Water Tours of the C&D Canal

From a romantic sunset cruise to a scenic sightseeing tour, the best way to get to know Chesapeake City, if you're exploring it for the first time, is from the water of the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal. A massive undertaking that started in 1802, the C&D Canal now not only providers a vital trade link around the Delmarva peninsula, it provides locals and visitors with some of our favorite recreational activities all year long. On a water tour, you'll see some of the best sights in the area from your unique vantage point. You also can kick back and relax outside with a cool beverage and the breeze in your hair. You'll quickly come to realize why the C&D Canal is the busiest canal in the United States.

If a water tour sounds like a blast, Chesapeake City Water Tours is the best resource for booking a scenic, relaxing, and enjoyable tour of Chesapeake City and the Canal. Their custom-built power Catamaran, Chase N Dreams, is a 50-foot U.S. Coast Guard certified vessel that features an open bow for sun-soaking and a full bar. There are many great options of water tours as well. The hour-long Sightseeing Canal Cruise is a one-hour trip that showcases the natural beauty of Maryland's waterways. Soak in the sun or soak in the fun facts, history, and local knowledge that the captains and crew members reveal about the Canal. A full cash bar will serve refreshing alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The Happy Hour Cruise is for those looking to savor a refreshing cocktail while listening to the carefree summer tunes of Jimmy Buffet. Unlike the Sightseeing Canal Cruise, this tour is not narrated but crew members are available to answer any questions you may have while you sip your happy hour drink specials. Make your getaway a little more romantic on a Sunset Cruise. From the canal, the sunset could not be more beautiful and there's absolutely no better view, especially with the vibrant colors reflected on top of the water. The open bar will be serving beer, wine, and mixed drinks, as well as non-alcoholic beverages.
