The lake water is finally down, and passengers can once again board the Pelican Breeze II on the new dock located at Frank Hall Park to cruise Albert Lea Lake.

The 55-passenger cruise boat’s previously scheduled  cruises had been canceled due to high water over the dock since late June.

Public narrated cruises are at 6 p.m. every Friday and at 1:30 p.m. every Sunday. Cost is $15 for adults and $5 for ages 5 and under for the 1-1/2- hour cruise. No reservations are required.
