We will explore the deep offshore waters up to and possibly beyond the edge of the Continental Shelf and the Hudson Canyon waters.  This ultra deep trip coincides with pelagic migration. 

There is a good chance for a variety of species including Cory’s, Great, Manx, and Sooty Shearwaters, Black-capped Petrel, Leach’s, Band-rumped, and Wilson’s Storm-Petrels, Red and Red-necked Phalaropes, Arctic Tern, all 3 jaegers, and South Polar Skua.  Phalaropes may already be in breeding plumage and jaegers may be adults. Deep water cetaceans are also possible like Cuvier’s Beaked Whale, Risso’s Dolphin, and Pilot Whale with Fin, Humpback, and Minke Whales more likely in a bit shallower water.

This trip is approximately 24-hours. Capacity is limited. Reservations are required. There is a 7-day cancellation policy. Non-refundable, non-transferable.

Boarding begins at 7:00pm on Sunday evening, June 2.  Passengers will board in the order in which their booking was received.
