Sunset dolphin tours to benefit MERR July 14, Aug. 11

The Marine Education, Research and Rehabilitation Institute Inc. will host its annual sunset dolphin tours with Cape Water Tours aboard its Second Nature boat at 7 p.m., Sunday, July 14, and 6:30 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 11, departing from the Cape May-Lewes Ferry terminal.

As the vessel heads to the Harbor of Refuge in search of dolphins and other wildlife, photo opportunities abound, so passengers are encouraged to bring cameras and binoculars.

Ticket cost is $60, which helps support stranding response and rescue of marine mammals and sea turtles. Caring for these animals includes veterinary treatment, food, transportation and supplies.
