Nature Tours

The NE Cape Fear is still largely unpopulated and looks much as it did when Wilmington, North Carolina was originally colonized. On Lorelei, a classic 36’ Willard Vega, designed by William Gardner, you can enjoy the seclusion of the scenic cypress-lined banks as they wind there way through time to the thriving waterfront of downtown Wilmington. A relaxing scenic cruise from her home port in Castle Hayne to Wilmington is an ideal way to spend a memorable afternoon of your vacation. The journey is comfortable, relaxing and inspirational, offering views of unspoiled nature and an amazing variety of wildlife. Photographers and nature buffs will love the chance to see alligators, dear, wild turkey, egrets, ibis, hawks, kingfishers, watersnakes and many other native species.
