On Sunday morning, September 21st, plan to motor up to Essex, park the Porsche, and set sail aboard the Essex River Queen II for a relaxing tour of the salt marsh estuary located in the area where the Essex River meets the ocean near Crane’s beach. Our host is Essex River Cruises and Charters, who have been running these tours since 1992. The area is a scenic salt marsh and home to an abundance of wildlife and natural beauty. Guides will describe the history of the area, including the glacial formation of the marsh itself, the Agawam natives who fished the river, and the history of boat building that built Essex into the community it is today.
Plan to arrive between 10:00 and 10:15 AM. The tour is scheduled to depart at 10:30 AM and will return at 12:30 PM. Complimentary coffee, muffiins, and juice will be provided on board.
Following the tour, we will descend upon the one and only Woodman’s restaurant, where fried clams were invented. They also serve an assortment of other fi ne seafood and have a full bar. So plan to relax after the tour with your Porsche friends over lunch before heading home.
