Cruise Description:

We will leave from our dock at Eagle Landing State Park in Haddam and cruise south. Across the river you will see the Goodspeed Opera House and the East Haddam Airport. On the way south, we will point out where a local eagles nest is (may catch a glimpse, hard with the leaves on the trees) and you will have a chance to view a very beautiful section of the pristine lower Connecticut River.

During the cruise your Captain and crew will narrate about local history, point out areas of interest and inform you of the river’s flora and fauna. We may even see our Bald Eagles!

You will experience an area that has been labeled by The Nature Conservancy as "One of the Last Great Places". You will also get a great view of Gillette’s Castle, Connecticut's greatest tourist attraction and the Chester/Hadlyme Ferry, the second oldest operating ferry in the United States.

If you'd like, make the cruise easy, bring your lunch, snack and/or favorite beverage with you.

Please check in at the dock at least five minutes before departure. RiverQuest leaves on time!

Each season on The Connecticut River is beautiful:

Spring: Osprey and other migratory birds have returned, foliage is unfolding displaying lovely colors, warmth of the Sun!

Summer: Cool breezes, Osprey and their hatchlings, resident Eagles and their babies. The river is alive!

Fall: The crisp air, beautiful foliage colors, serene river.

Winter: (different price and cruise length) Eagle Cruises, many wintering birds, an enjoyable, tranquil time to be on the river.

Note: The captain reserves the right to change the cruise itinerary or cancel a cruise anytime he feels that there may be a weather issue.

Sunset Cruises, peaceful and relaxing offered most evenings during the summer on RiverQuest.

Note: If we meet our passenger capacity of 58, we will leave the dock, even if it is before the published departure time.                                                                                                    Daily Public Cruise Price: Adult: $20.00; Youth (2 years to 12 years): $15.00; Under 2: Free
