Located in historic Essex, Massachusetts, Essex River Cruises & Charters has been operating narrated sightseeing cruises, private charters, tidal beach clambakes, and more for over 20 years. Share the opportunity to escape to the unspoiled natural beauty of the Essex River onboard the Essex River Queen I and the Essex River Queen II. Surrounded by fine restaurants, antique shops, working museums, and cultural attractions, you'll cruise through spectacular views of scenic salt marshes with rich unique wildlife. Cruise with us to learn about the history and lore of the area.
Our vessels allow you to fully enjoy the unspoiled charm of the area rain or shine, all season long. The marsh itself is part of the Essex River estuary, an intriguing natural work in progress. Formed 15,000 years ago by melting glaciers of the last Ice Age, the marsh serves as the feeding ground for many species of beautiful birds and abundant wildlife. For generations, it has sustained boat builders, fishermen, clammers, entrepreneurs, and characters of all sorts from the Agawam natives to the present residents. We'll tell some of their stories during your cruise.
Essex River Cruises & Charters is locally owned and operated with an experienced and knowledgable Captain and Crew onboard ready to assist you and answer all your questions!
