Albemarle Queen Offers Narrated Lunch Cruise During Coast Guard Marathon Weekend


A relaxing narrated lunch cruise aboard the Albemarle Queen Paddle Boat is offering guests a scenic escape along the waterways of Elizabeth City during Coast Guard Marathon weekend. While activity unfolds onshore, passengers can enjoy a peaceful journey on the water, taking in wide river views, historic landmarks, and the natural beauty of northeastern North Carolina.


The cruise combines leisurely dining with live narration that highlights the region’s maritime heritage, cultural history, and riverfront communities. Guests can unwind while enjoying a cafeteria-style meal with vegetarian options, all set against the gentle motion of the paddlewheel and refreshing coastal breezes.


As the vessel travels along the Albemarle Sound and surrounding waterways, passengers are treated to panoramic scenery that offers a different perspective on the marathon weekend atmosphere. The experience blends calm observation with light storytelling, creating a balanced outing of dining and discovery.


The Albemarle Queen itself carries a rich history, having been built in Milwaukee and previously operating on the Tennessee River and Florida coast before finding its home in North Carolina’s harbor towns, including Edenton, Hertford, Elizabeth City, Columbia, and Plymouth. With both a climate-controlled indoor salon and a covered open-air deck, the vessel provides comfort in all weather conditions. Boarding begins prior to departure, allowing guests time to settle in before setting out on this leisurely and engaging river cruise.
