About Your Trip

Spend a perfect day out on the waters of Barnegat Bay with Captain Chris as you cruise to local favorites like Treasure Island and Cattus Island. Whether you’re in the mood to explore, swim, or just kick back and enjoy the scenery, this trip is all about doing the bay your way.

With room for up to 12 guests and flexible trip lengths from 3 to 10 hours, this experience is ideal for families, friend groups, or anyone looking to trade the crowded beaches for a more relaxed, on-the-water escape. Cruise through calm back bays, take in the coastal views, and drop anchor at scenic sandbars or island spots where you can hop out to swim, float, and unwind.

Treasure Island and Cattus Island offer a more laid-back alternative to the party coves, making them perfect for nature lovers and families. Expect shallow, swimmable waters, peaceful surroundings, and plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the day. Keep an eye out for local wildlife as you explore—these areas are known for their natural beauty and quiet charm.

If you’re looking to mix in a little action, optional add-ons like tubing and tow rides can turn the bay into your personal playground. Or keep things mellow with a scenic cruise, great music, and good company as you take in everything the Jersey Shore has to offer.

Captain Chris brings decades of experience navigating these waters, so you’ll always be in the right place at the right time. Safety is a top priority, with a USCG-licensed captain, fully insured vessel, and all required safety gear onboard.

Your trip includes fuel, coolers with ice, a Bluetooth sound system, and all safety equipment. Optional add-ons like floats or tubing are available to customize your day.

Just bring sunscreen, towels, snacks, and drinks (alcohol is welcome in moderation—no glass), and get ready for a relaxing, fun-filled day exploring some of Barnegat Bay’s best hidden gems with Captain Chris!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to thousands of quality, vetted fishing, hunting, and other outdoor sports guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
