    We have tried the lobster boat tour, nubble lighthouse, and the sunset cocktail cruise. All 3 we enjoyed. Good hosts, friendly, good with kids on board, and a nice ride along the coast of Maine to see things from a different angle. We come to Ogunquit annually and find these boat tours out of Perkins Cove to be a nice change up in our routine there and something to highlight our trip with. We will come again for sure.

    As my lighthouse tour with New England Eco Adventures got cancelled due to rough seas, I rescheduled with these folks as they had fair rates and good reviews. A solid move on my part. Even though most of the people on my tour were on the older side, I felt the boat tour of Nubble Light was both fun and engaging. They do allow you to bring your own food on board and alcohol is permitted. Thankfully people are courtesy (by the way, everybody in Maine is super friendly), and as the tour progressed, more people became friendly. I highly suggest a tour of Nubble Light with them. If that is not your fancy, you could go lobstering with them too. Apparently that is fun as well. Whichever you choose, I am sure you will be satisfied.

    Very informative, interactive experience. I'd have loved a longer excursion. They stressed the various criteria for which lobsters can be kept. Many are thrown back to grow, reproduce, etc.

    We loved it. It's very conveniently located. It's also a gorgeous view from the bridge. It's very easy to just order online and not have to worry about waiting to get there. You can't miss it because it's right there in Perkins cove. Also, the boat is super nice for what it is. It's a lobster boat. However It definitely feels up quickly so I recommend getting it but it was perfect for my 5 and 10-year-old. You get on the boat and they're super helpful and super nice. When you start going, the water is definitely a little back and forth. However, All the facts you're hearing are super good I love that we learned a lot about lobsters and learned a lot about Maine. it's gorgeous views And I really love that you get to like see the lobsters touch them. The kids get to like run things about them. It's super nice. I would recommend to anyone. It's the perfect amount of boat experience

    Cruises are awesome, very friendly staff. Got up close & personal with a lobsters they caught on the lobstering boat. Also went seal watching, very awesome experience that my kids will always remember! The muffins & coffee on the seal cruise was fantastic! Thank you Finestkind for an awesome family experience!!!

    Just took our Girl Scout Troop on the lobster boat ride for a trip to remember! People from all over the world we're on our boat. We got to hold lobsters and learn all about the Maine coastline. All of the kids even got a turn, steering the boat! If you are local or visiting, a trip on the Finest Kind is a must do!

    Finestkind is a must in Ogunquit! My family goes every year on their vacation and my husband and I take all of our friends when they visit us. they pour a cocktail and you learn all about the coast of Maine and the beautiful Nubble Lighthouse! The tour guides are all truly gems and we always learn something new. Cannot recommend this tour enough!

    If you have always wondered how the famous "MAINE LOBSTERS" are caught, look no further. Our time with Finestkind Scenic Cruises was perfect! Each ticket for the Lobster Tour was $25/pp. Our tour guide was a young high-schooler who knew his stuff! He was informative, and slightly awkward-- the best kind of tour guide! Our captain was the exact opposite. A man of few words, but did all the lobster catching. If you get motion sickness, I highly recommend taking an anti-nausea drug, as the waters are choppy. Also, make sure to bring a jacket! If you forget, they do have blankets you can borrow.

    We loved the lobster boat ride! Great family fun for my 11 year olds. We thoroughly enjoyed the 50 min ride, learning about lobstering & the Maine coastline. Perkins Cove is beautiful and made for a fun day. Children will enjoy the facts, as well as pulling up lobster traps, holding live lobsters, and sea urchins. Narration was very good and all questions were answered. Highly recommend!

    We took the 2:00 lighthouse cruise on July 4. We were surprised tickets were available when they were purchased the same morning($33 per passenger). Due to the pandemic, 50% occupancy was allowed. So seating was plentiful. Nicely narrated along the 45 minute trip from Perkins Cove in Ogunquit MA to the lighthouse near York. The crew was friendly and cash bar provided which made it a pleasant experience. Finestkind offers a Lobster cruise, breakfast cruise and dinner cruises also.

    Took the very scenic, relaxing lighthouse tour Easy access, knowledgeable staff, beautiful coastline

    Perkins Cove

    Best kept secret in the area: 545pm cocktail cruise, which is a perfect "place" to have a pre-dinner drink (or three), during the golden hour of the day. The tour hugs the coast south to York and back. Learn about lobstering, boat crashes, and lighthouses - but more importantly drink in the scenery (and booze). Bring cash.

    Came to do the lobster cruise and had a wonderful time! My friend Brian and I learned so much in one hour and couldn't stop talking about how much fun we had! Captain Tom got to handle a giant 14lb lobster from one of the traps and it was the biggest lobster I have ever seen. While I'm sure this cruise is geared towards families with kids I would probably recommend it over the cocktail cruise of you want a little more excitement. You learn a lot. You get a little wet and you get great views... $17 was totally worth it!
