Thanks Boston Herald for the amazing feature!

We are trying to run tours until this upcoming weekend, first weekend of December, weather permitting.

After a winter break we plan on opening early April which is when we will be seeing the largest haulout of seals!!

Call us at 508-430-7772 or check out our schedule on our website.

A shark was spotted devouring a gray seal off of Monomoy Island, ripping out the seal’s lower back and much of the prey’s side, according to a Cape Cod seal cruise operator.

WARNING graphic photos

Yesterday on our seal cruise we happened to be at the right place at the right time and witnessed a shark predation of a gray seal! Bad day to be a seal, but a great day to be a great white!

It happened so fast, we weren’t able to get a photo of the shark but the following pictures show the aftermath. After the attack the gray seal, with his lower back and much of his side missing, was able to swim quickly to the shore. He even was able to become fully airborne at times on his swim in!

At the shoreline, he succumbed to his wounds and the haulout above him was completely unfazed by the interaction. The haulout was mainly gray seals but there were a number of harbor seals as well.

All of this happened off of the southern point Monomoy Island.

We are still running cruises daily until December and if you would like to join please book online on our website or call us at 508-430-7772! You will see seals, lighthouses, and just maybe a great white shark!

Thank you Wayne Davis for this amazing photo of the Perseverance! Here our vessel has the shallow sandbars of North Monomoy on either side and those darks spots are seals!

Wayne is pilot and photographer. He spends a lot of time in the air looking for sharks to help the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy Group find great white sharks to tag and track. When he doesn’t spot sharks he might just take a picture of you on our boat!!

After a few blustery days, we are excited to be getting back out on the water tomorrow! Five days away will have resulted in many changes. Many of these Double-crested Cormorants nests may have hatchlings by now on Saqutucket Harbor's light beacon. We expect to see a lot of changes in the sandbars around Morris Island and Monomoy as well!

Our schedule is available online where you can book as well, or call us at 508-430-7772 with questions!

Thank you Molly for this amazing footage of our first trip of 2021! It was a small gang who braved the East wind with us but very worth it to see the winter erosion and harbor seal pups!

As we reach the end of our tour season, we want to say THANK YOU to our staff and all of our customers. Without your interest and support this season would have looked much different, and we can’t express how grateful we are for all of you. We will be back on the water in the spring and hope to see you all there!

We are often asked if we see sharks while on our seal cruises. The answer is YES! The water on the atlantic side of Monomoy Island is a common area to find great white sharks, and we often see the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy crew tagging these majestic creatures! Check out these photos of the team doing their thing that Captain Pete captured today!
