Look for seals in Long Island Sound, enjoy the colors of twilight on the water and get close to eight historic lighthouses through a variety of public cruises offered this month by The Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk. The Aquarium’s current season of “Seal-Spotting & Birding Cruises” continues with outings March 13, 19 and 20. New “Sunset Cruises” debut on March 19 with an adults-only happy-hour-type outing to the Norwalk islands. And a “Western Long Island Sound Lighthouse Cruise” on March 26 will feature special guest Jeremy D’Entremont, who has been called the leading expert on New England’s historic lighthouses. _________

Like all of the Aquarium cruises offered to the public and to school groups, these outings will occur aboard R/V Spirit of the Sound™, the only research vessel in the country with quiet hybrid-electric propulsion.
