Explore Lake Champlain's amazing intact shipwrecks from the 1800's with an ROV camera and without getting wet. This is an unique and exciting on-water outing for people of all ages combining high tech with history.
Join shipwrecktour.com for an adventure for all ages. Your adventure begins with a cruise to the wreck site. Then, while sitting above the wreck, you will hear the story of what happened. Next, we deploy an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) and by viewing screens onboard the boat, you will be part of the exploration of the wreck - from the surface. This is a fun and unique experience for everyone. Shipwrecktour.com was the second company worldwide to offer ths great opportunity for the public to connect with their underwater world.
Our season runs approximately from June - October. Have a great winter.
Shipwreck tour gift certificates make great and affordable gifts. Give us a call or email to give the gift of adventure, learning and something very unique for the whole family.
Once we launch the ROV - we see all of the history and lake-life below.
