Departing from Sunapee Harbor, a narrated boat tour on Lake Sunapee is a time-honored way to spend an afternoon. Come aboard, relax in your deck chair and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Sunapee. Your knowledgeable Captain will provide a narration of the history, landmarks and lore of this crystal clear mountain lake. Lake Sunapee is known as the “waters of the flying goose,” and the M.V. MT. Sunapee II has been cruising her waters for decades.
The M.V. MT. Sunapee II features an open-air top deck and a fully enclosed lower deck – no matter the weather, you can cruise this picturesque lake in comfort. You’ll see the magnificent homes that have sprung up around the lake as well as the historic sights of yester year. A highlight for many are the three historic, and still operating, lighthouses. While cruising the lake you will be afforded a unique viewpoint of our beautiful area, as well as unimpeded views of local mountains Kearsarge and Sunapee. On clear days you can see all the way to Vermont’s Mount Ascutney.
