H2O Captain Eco-Tour Boat Excursions is an authorized permittee of the National Park Service's Cape Lookout National Seashore to be able to perform tours of the wild horses of Shackleford Banks and of The Cape Lookout Lighthouse.  Under the Governor of NC's order, people must wear face coverings when in public places where physical distancing is not possible.  Because of the location of our private passengers on our boat face coverings will not be needed.  

Our Private Boat Tours lasts 4+ hours. The tour itinerary is flexible. The typical departure time is 10:00am.  Maximum of 6 passengers with all accommodated on padded seats.   Nothing like a padded seat to absorb the waves!  The best days of the week to have a wonderful experience are weekdays.  Prices start at $299.

There are plenty of ways to enjoy our many miles of shoreline this summer. You can practice social distancing by walking on the uncrowded beach while seeing our wild horses on Shackleford, take a scenic boat ride down the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW), hopefully, see a pod of bottlenose dolphins (Flipper) or enjoy the beautiful local homes on the canals of Pine Knoll Shores and on Spooner’s Creek on the mainland as you explore all from the comfort of our Carolina Skiff 21 foot Ultra Elite Series with pickups in either Beaufort, Morehead City, or Atlantic Beach. 

You will be greeted by Captain Mark and his 1st Mate, "Lucky" the dog.  “Lucky is amazing, I love that dog!!! He can be in my boat anytime.” –Captain Jose P."  Should you be allergic, Lucky will wait on land.  Welcome Aboard, Enjoy the Excursions!
