THE BEST HISTORY LESSON ON THE LAKE
Climb aboard our floating classroom and discover the rich
history surrounding Lake Champlain. Cruise the water highways
used by Native Americans, gaze in awe at the unique geographic
 formations
such as the Champlain Thrust Fault and Rock Dunder, and follow
the adventures of Ethan Allen himself.
Along your cruise, the Captain will point out sights of historic
shipwrecks, and famous battles fought during the Revolutionary
War. A chance appearance by the Lake’s elusive monster, Champ,
will fill your students with anticipation as their eyes search
for our friendly Vermonster in the depths of the Lake.
