1/2 Hour Cruise with a full beer during the festival!

Picture
OC Bay Hopper is excited to provide mini Shore Craft Beer cruises during the OCtoberfest Craft Beer Festival! The cruise will last just shy of 30 minutes and depart/return to the dock at the festival!
Walk out to the dock at your selected departure time to board the boat, have a beer, and enjoy the natural beauty of the coastal bays. The cruise will include one beer per person, and the tour is sold in “sections” of the boat, rather than per-person, to encourage social distancing bubbles.
Half hour cruise on the OC Bay Hopper (for festival goers)

This festival is co-sponsored by OCDC and the Town of Ocean City.
