Marine Mammal Safari 2006!

Set sail with us on Saturday April 22 (10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.) Both cruises leave from the Massachusetts Bay Lines dock at Rowes Wharf, behind the Boston Harbor Hotel. Boarding begins 1/2 hour prior to cruise time - boats leave promptly so don't be late!

Our annual Marine Mammal Safaris introduce hundreds of children each spring to the seasonal migration of seals and porpoises in Boston Harbor. We set sail on a 3 hour cruise around Boston Harbor looking for harbor seals and porpoises - and other marine life! It's a great trip for the entire family - and it's FREE to everyone! Thanks to Massachusetts Bay Lines for providing the transportation!

To reserve your seats or for more information, call Lauren Thirer at Save the Harbor/Save the Bay: (617) 451-2860 x103

Things to bring with you on the Marine Mammal Safari:

Warm Clothes:
Even though it may be warm onshore, it can get windy and cool out on the Harbor!
Bag Lunch: There will be beverages and chips for sale on board the boat, so bring a lunch along so you don’t get hungry!
Binoculars: Help us spot the marine mammals – and get an even closer look at them in their natural habitat!
