Learn, Discover and Explore the natural wonders of the Carolina Coast.
Our Captains and Tour Guides are naturalists with many years of experience sharing knowledge with visitors here at Wrightsville Beach. Birding, fishing, shell-collecting and sunset cruises are our specialty, but we love organizing custom options for school groups, weddings and corporate events too!
NEW Tours for 2019 Summer Season
Restaurant Tour
Come join the locals at their favorite restaurants conveniently located on the water! A favored tradition passed down for generations is taking the family boat out for a day spent fishing, doing water sports, or hitting the sandbar beaches. After a day in the sun the local families pull their boats right up to one of their favorite restaurants. Where they can enjoy a refreshing drink, local seafood, good music, and much more.
Inshore Bottom Fishing
Fishing from the beach or pier is fun, but the big fish are in the deeper water. Join us on Shamrock for our twice weekly Inland Bottom Fishing cruises. The Cape Fear Naturalist provides rod, tackle, bait and license as well as local knowledge. Try your luck going after flounder, bluefish and sea bass on a two hour fishing trip to the teeming and beautiful waters of Masonboro Sound.

All you need to do is show up at our dock with your friends and some sunscreen, and let Wrightsville Beach Scenic Tours take care of the rest.
