REGISTER ONLINEWe are delighted to join forces with our friends and colleagues at the Loon Preservation Committee (LPC). Loon Cruises focus on Common Loon conservation, biology, and monitoring. A Science Center naturalist joins a LPC biologist who guides the tour and discusses the work LPC does across the state and on Squam to protect these extraordinary birds. The cruise route is chosen to maximize Loon observations.

Cruises are 90 minutes long and on canopied pontoon boats. New Hampshire State law requires youth ages 12 and under to wear a life jacket on board.

Not recommended for ages 5 and under.

Binoculars will be available free of charge or you may bring your own. Dress appropriately for the weather and remember that it is cooler on the lake. Be prepared for rain.
Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your cruise departure time.

If we need to cancel your cruise due to weather we will contact you to reschedule or issue you a full refund. If you need to cancel for any reason please call us at 603-968-7194 x7 at least 90 minutes prior to the start of the cruise to reschedule or receive a refund.
