Join us on our Spring Color Cruises and experience the many shades of green. We will be cruising 34 miles from the Chattanooga riverfront through the Grand Canyon of the Tennessee River to Hales Bar Marina. Through the years the crew has observed that there are as many shades of new foliage as there are vibrant colors in fall. Spring is the season when the foliage sheds the gloom of winter and begins to put on a fresh coat of life. There will also be a chance for seeing Bald Eagles, nest building Ospreys, migrating and resident egrets and herons as well as deer and other wildlife.
The morning cruise will depart from the City Pier on the Chattanooga Water Front at 10:00 a.m. and bus back from Hales Bar Marina. The afternoon cruise participants will depart by bus at 1:00 p.m. from under the Olgiati Bridge on the Chattanooga Waterfront. We will board the Blue Moon at Hales Bar Marina and cruise back to the City Pier.
