In 2008 the Cape May Whale Watcher along with the mamouth Spirit of Cape May were privileged to take over 17,000 senior citizens on our whale and dolphin watching and historical cruises. Most of these groups attended our regular two hour trips. By 'regular' we mean the same trip offered throughout the season to anyone that comes to our ticket window. The trip is not an abridged version of our regular itinerary.
Our senior citizen group rate plan is simple. By participating in the program we give you the ability to market the trips at an exceptional discount. In fact, our deepest discount. For example, our 10 a.m., 2 hour Dolphin Watch/Around Cape Island historical cruise has a $28 retail value (our ticket window price). Yet our seniors group rates start at $15/per person . Our rates can be tailored to your plan. The only catch...we need 25 people minimum. We charge based on the number who actually attend the trip. We realize that senior groups often entail last minute cancellations.
Jersey Shore tour operators enjoy great success with this program. It is a tool to increase sales, provides a lucrative marketing tool that adds value to tour packages, provides patrons with another exciting experience at the shore, and increases repeat business.

A Word to Skeptics...
There really are whales & dolphins in New Jersey. It's the same ocean as Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Florida. These places have invested millions to promote their native fauna such as Whales, Dolphins, Seals, Manatees, and Birds. Guess what? New Jersey takes second to none of these places. Example: nearly two thousand Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins live in New Jersey waters from April to October every year! All those Humpback Whales in Massachusetts and Florida also spend a great deal of time around Delaware Bay. Why? Whales have to eat and Delaware Bay is one of the richest marine systems on the east coast. Birds? Cape May is world famous for it's bird life.
A special thank you to those of you who sailed with us before. We hope to see you again soon! |
