Albemarle Sound Sightseeing Tour

Slow down and take it all in. The Albemarle Sound and Scuppernong River are stunning — wide open water, ancient cypress swamps, shorebirds, and dolphins that seem to follow the boat. It's the best way to experience Columbia and Tyrrell County from the water.

We'll cruise the Albemarle at a relaxed pace, stopping wherever the scenery or wildlife calls for it. Your captain will point out local landmarks, share a little history of Columbia and the surrounding area, and make sure everyone gets a great view. Sunset tours are especially popular.
