Tip: arrive 15 to 30 minutes before your sailing time. If you do for some reason arrive late like…read moreus, you will need to contact the company and see if there are any open spots available for the next sailing session. If there is no answer, they do call you back. While you wait there is a bar/restaurant right on the dock, you can relax and hang out on. Parking is limited but can be found outside the docking area along the main street. Onboard: seating is first come first serve. If you prefer to be out in the open, head all the way to the front of the boat. Make sure you grab yourself a small table if you plan to have drinks and oysters. Cash and credit is accepted, pay your tab closer to shore when returning to avoid having to wait for all the others wanting to cash out at the same time. The oysters offered are from 6 different farms. We only liked 1 of them as the others were very briny and salty. Still pretty cool to taste what they offer. Great selection of drinks and local beers. The captain is very nice and super funny, but hard to hear or understand at times. Overall the sail is nice close to full 2hrs and not choppy at all. I wouldn't go more than once, but would try if I'm visiting the town.

The setting is beautifully rustic and authentic, as it's a working oyster farm. After parking, you'll find a small building where you place your order. The menu is simple but perfect for the experience, offering things like olives, crackers, chips, chowder, and a small salad, along with beer and wine. We ordered a bottle of wine and a dozen oysters -- they had three varieties available, so we mixed and matched. We chose a table under the large outdoor tent, which has plenty of picnic tables and a great view. It's a "shuck your own" situation, but the staff are friendly and happy to show you how. Shucking does take a little patience (and care!), but it's part of the fun. If you're looking for a unique and authentic experience, I highly recommend.. Fresh oysters, great atmosphere, and a perfect way to spend an afternoon!

We have eaten them raw and chargrilled. Both ways were amazing! They travel well, just keep them cold in cooler or fridge. I have picked on Friday and eaten on Sunday with no dead ones.

Unfortunately, on the way up the highway, there were two accidents and we knew we would miss the ferry.

We determined our arrival time and set it up. We were greeted by the most friendlies people and they offered to sit in the lounge area (A/C) and they had fun beverages for purchase, while you waited.

We came to Maine very VERY early season (March 20th-24th) and were looking for something to do…read more Most of the area is still in full 'pre season' mode, with many restaurants and services closed, especially during the week. We found the walking Food tour on Viator and jumped at it - and boy were we glad that we did! Because of the time of year, my wife and I were alone on the tour and as such got to spend around 3 hours with our guide, Ray Sapirstein. Putting aside Ray's obvious love for Portland and food in general, he was a charming guy - keeping us engaged and entertained with stories about the area for the entire duration of the tour. Ray is a PHD trained historian and, as such, was able to fill in a lot of color about the area, going beyond the 'food' aspects of the tour, describing the 'hilly roads' which were sand dunes were covered up to build out the city. Add to that the fact that he took us to several places that we NEVER would have found via googling for 'best ofs' and would have been a HUGE failure to miss! Andy's Old Port Pub - a neighborhood bar (don't call it a dive, though in my mind it qualifies). Spend some time chatting with Thomas, the owner, and Steve the bartender - and had what I can only describe as the single best haddock taco I've ever had in my life. Do not judge a book by it's cover: this place is AWESOME. Great craft beer tap list, and a warm and friendly environment. If I lived in the area, this would be my regular. From there we went to Gilbert's Chowder house right next door - Ray was again right: don't sleep on the seafood chili - it was RIDICULOUSLY amazing. After that we paid a visit to the Harbor Fish Market where we got to see the recent catches, and as Ray pointed out the 'transparency' of the thing: fish are cleaned and prepped for sale right where the customer can watch, and all fish are labeled as 'fresh' (with VERY few pre-frozen exceptions). This is also the place to go if you want to buy Maine swag. From there we proceeded to Rigby House, an unassuming 'coffee shop and workspace' that Ray promised us had nothing short of the best lobster roll in Maine: I've had some good lobster rolls so I can't quite commit to that, but the bread it was built on was FANTASTIC, baked locally from one of the bakeries rated tops in the nation right in Portland. This stop came with either 2 samplers or 1 full pour from their 20+ menu. Don't miss the blueberry ale. It's a rare treat and again, came from Ray's love of his city. From there, we visited Dean's Sweet shop for a couple of truffles and terrible jokes, and then Fiasco's Gelato to round up our day - try the lobster gelato, it's weird and not something I'd necessarily do again...but glad to have had the experience. The whoopie pie gelato was top notch and the blueberry was one of the best gelatos I've ever had. For a 3 hour tour, with all food included, we were certainly full and happy. The walk was short - I don't think we wandered more than a mile in total - and when we were showing signs of being "Help me I'm not from Maine cold", Ray took us into Grittys, another neighborhood bar just for a warm up.

We even confirmed the reservation just yesterday. We're staying at Spruce Point Inn and literally saw the boat leave this morning -- with a different group. We were told it was due to a new scheduling system, and that the other group's trip had been canceled the day before. But it's incredibly frustrating and hard to accept that our private charter, which had been booked far in advance, was the one that got bumped last minute. There was no meaningful apology. Just an offer to rebook us for tomorrow (when the weather looks terrible) or refund us. No real effort to make things right. This was supposed to be a highlight of our trip -- instead, it left us scrambling and disappointed on a very important and personal day. Totally unacceptable. I would not recommend trusting this company with your plans, especially if you're celebrating something meaningful.
