The skipper delivers mail bags, groceries, and freight to residents along the waterways. Passengers can observe this ongoing postal delivery tradition that has lasted over 150 years. The boat includes on-board restrooms and commentary during the trip. Depending on time, the cruise may stop briefly at one of the locations within the Queen Charlotte Sound, with the exact route provided at check-in. Food is not provided but guests may bring their own. Tea and coffee are available on board for those who purchase a Beachcomber Cruises keep cup before departure, as single-use cups are no longer used. The boat size varies from small 9-seater vessels up to 99-seater catamarans, depending on the day.
