When we returned to the dock the crew also transported him back to the car in a golf cart. We want to give a special shout out and profound gratitude to Keegan who Captained the Spray Falls Cruise but helped my brother in law with mobility issues to board the boat and made certain his trip was special. The crew, London, and Cheyenne were attentive and helpful. Our Captain, Joel, was knowledgable and told funny "Dad" jokes and spun great stories. There is a gift shop at the dock area if you want to purchase souvenirs. Get there early! We got there 25 minutes before departure and couldn't get the seats we wanted - lots of people lined up. I also recommend you have easy access to the back of the boat on the lower level for great pictures. I would recommend that you sit on the right for better views - and also close to one of the speakers. On the way back, we had silence for a while, and then some tidbits about Grand Island. Our captain took us quite close to shore, and at one point we cruised into one of the inlets so we could get an "up close and personal" view of the beautiful water and rock formation. On the way out, the tour guide provided lots of interesting tidbits along the way about the sights we saw on the mainland - including some humor guaranteed to bring a "groan" to break up the reading. We had a nice sunny day and a smooth ride. We bought tickets in advance (I highly recommend during the busy season) and enjoyed this cruise touring the Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Grand Island on Lake Superior.
