About The Trip

The Atlantic Star begins our journey in Sunset Lake traveling through the Intercoastal Waterway to Jarvis Sound and out to the Atlantic through the Cape May Inlet, where looking left you see the seven mile beaches of the Wildwoods. As you look to the right, we see the Historic Island of Cape May where you’ll witness some of the most historical and spectacular sights including:

  • Cape May Harbor – The second largest commercial fishing port on the East coast and home to the USCG’s only training center.
  • The Sea Mist – A Bed & Breakfast known for its historic “widow’s walk.”
  • Congress Hall – It was once known as “The Summer White House.”
  • Cape May Point Light House – Newly built in 1859, more than 100 thousand visitors walk the 100 steps to the top of the lighthouse, participating in a century old rite of a visit to the Jersey Shore.
  • Sunset Beach – Besides having unusually beautiful sunsets overlooking the water, Sunset Beach has the remains of the concrete ship “Atlantis”, Cape May Diamonds, and the summer evening Flag Ceremony.

The meeting location will be 6200 Park Boulevard, Wildwood Crest, NJ 08260. Make sure you arrive 30 minutes before your slot for a smooth check-in!

    About The Starlight Fleet

    The Starlight Fleet has been serving customers for 49 years. The ships that comprise The Starlight Fleet's squadron of vessels each transport passengers across the waves on a variety of sea adventures. The Starlight ferries fisherman on four-hour excursions to hook sea bass, flounder, croakers and triggerfish, the captain using sonar, GPS, and a knowledge of the currents to identify prime fishing real estate. The Atlantic Star typically serves as a whale-watching vessel and is kitted out with a snack-filled galley and a touch tank filled with horseshoe crabs and other local sea life.

    The company even boasts its very own pirate ship, The Dark Star, a custom-designed vessel built by Naval Architect Michael LeMole. It takes passengers on swashbuckling adventures during which they learn what a swash is and how to buckle it, as well as participate in treasure hunts and face painting.
