A captained cruise on Carter’s Creek and the Rappahannock River, this sunset activity gives you a memorable opportunity to enjoy time on the water at “golden hour,” as the day comes to a close and the sky turns beautiful shades of orange, pink and purple. A charcuterie board and wine are included in this activity.
A watercolor-inspired cruise along Carter’s Creek, this leisurely activity invites you to take in the beauty of the Chesapeake from the water while creating your own artistic keepsake. Enjoy the changing scenery and peaceful surroundings as you paint alongside an artist, with watercolor supplies and all the inspiration you need included in this activity.
The creek is quieter in the early morning — the light different, the birds louder, the water still enough to reflect the sky. Set out with your captain on Carter’s Creek and into the Rappahannock as the sun comes up with a cup of coffee in hand, and let the region reveal itself at its own pace.

The creek takes on a different character after dark — the water deeper, the sky wider, the world quieter than it was a few hours ago. Set out with your captain on Carter’s Creek and into the Rappahannock as the moon rises, and let the river show you a side of itself most visitors never see.
