Reelfoot Lake Scenic Boat Cruises If you get the chance, you need to try the Scenic Boat Cruise on Reelfoot Lake at least once in your life. You can drive around the highway and see the lake or you can get in the cruise boat and experience the lake. It's one of the oldest traditions at Reelfoot, or for any of Tennessee's state parks for that matter, and is truly a must for anyone who enjoys Reelfoot Lake. Since 1961, cruise boats piloted by experienced naturalists have provided the best way to view Reelfoot's most interesting areas without fishing or duck hunting. The cruise tours the islands, flooded timber and lily pads while State Park naturalists provide insight and information about all aspects of the lake. It's a great opportunity to view birds, including Great Blue Herons and the occasional Bald Eagle, as well as the diverse aquatic plants. You might even see a snake or two. Take it from someone who has taken the tour, it's something you will never forget. It's been almost 25 years since I took the tour and I still remember it well. So, take the time, get the family together, and take a relaxing trip around Reelfoot. You won't regret it. Interpretive cruises depart from the Visitor Center/Ellington Assembly Hall at 9:00 AM daily, May 1st thru October 1st (weather permitting). The tour is approximately 3 hours long. Special afternoon cruises are provided for groups of ten or more, Monday thru Friday, between the hours of 1:30 p.m. and sunset. Reservations must be made in advance. Short cruises are offered on weekends and holidays at 1:30 and 2:45 p.m.. This cruise is approximately one hour long. Reservations are required. Call Reelfoot Lake State Park at 731-253-9652 to make your reservation. PRICES
