From the September 7, 2020, NJ.com.
Fort Delaware State Park will start offering Delaware River cruises starting this Friday, September 11.
Fort Delaware, which is on Pea Patch Island is in the middle of the river, about half way between Fort DuPont in Delaware and Fort Mott in Pennsville, New Jersey. Fort Delaware once house Confederate prisoners during the Civil War.
Friday cruises are slated for Sept. 11, 18 and 25, include one-hour trips at 4:30 and 5:45 pm for $15 and 90-minute sunset tours at 7 pm for $25.
The cruises depart the Fort Delaware ticket office in Delaware City, travel around the southern end of Pea Patch Island and head toward Fort Mott before returning. Two park staffers will be on board to highlight points of interest along the way.
Because of the coronavirus pandemic, a maximum of 24 visitors will be allowed on board to ensure social distancing and masks are required.
Well, too late for this year. Maybe next year.
