Seal Watching Tour

Mar 12, 2025

As the temperatures dip and winter approaches, one of our favorite seasonal events returns: seal-watching cruises on the Delaware Bay! Every winter, curious harbor and grey seals migrate down from the colder waters of the north, finding refuge along our coastline. These playful and curious creatures are often spotted basking on rocks or popping up along the bay, providing a fantastic and rare wildlife viewing experience.Our seal-watching cruises depart from Lewes, offering a comfortable, family-friendly way to see these incredible animals up close. The knowledgeable crew will guide you through the bay, pointing out seals and sharing fascinating facts about their habits, migration patterns, and the importance of protecting their natural habitats. This is a perfect trip for wildlife enthusiasts, families, or anyone looking to connect with Delaware’s unique coastal ecosystem.Guests are encouraged to bring cameras and binoculars, as the seals make for wonderful photos, especially against the beautiful winter backdrop of the bay. Bring a warm coat and a sense of adventure, and let us show you why seal-watching is one of Cape Water Tours’ most beloved experiences. Book your spot today, and don’t miss the chance to see these marine visitors before they head back north!
