Seal & Harbor Tours

Enjoy a scenic cruise along Chatham's coastline with close-up views of gray and harbor seals. You may see them on the sandbars basking in the sun at low tide or frolicking in the water at high tide. Along the way, take in sights like the iconic Chatham Lighthouse and the Chatham Fish Pier.

Please call Concierge at 508-945-6871 to reserve a one-hour harbor and seal cruise. Seal & Harbor Tours are now closed for the season. We look forward to welcoming you back in May 2026.

Reservations

Boating is available from May through October. Space is limited and many of these experiences sell out quickly, so make sure to reserve as far in advance as possible by calling 508.945.6871.

If you need to change or cancel your reservation, we do require notice 24 hours in advance. Please note all boating excursions are subject to change.
