Paddlewheel Excursions
Located next to Camp Snoopy, Paddlewheel Excursions carries its guests on a relaxing voyage around Cedar Point’s lagoons past scenes depicting early Americana. The scenes are described in a narration given by the Captain of each boat, who often helps crack a smile with quick-witted jokes regarding each scene.
Since it opened in 1964, Paddlewheel Excursions has given nearly 45 million rides through the peaceful lagoons. (Originally called the Western Cruise, it was renamed in 1986.)
