Cassie was very informative…read moreand educational, we learned a lot about lobstering in Maine, as well as taking in all the awesome scenery (got to see a handful of lighthouses on this tour). We also observed several harbor seals on the cruise. As an added bonus, the weather happened to be perfect this morning. Dogs are allowed on the boat, our mini poodle also loved her outing today. We highly recommend this cruise if you have never been to the Penobscot Bay area before.

I have been on about 20 day cruises in my life and this was the best. Cassie told stories and…read moretalked about interesting history and facts for the entire 3 hour cruise. You can tell she is very knowledgeable about all things related to central Maine and marine life. The boat pilot was also amazing. He was able to adjust the cruise to keep us dry and out of the really big waves. The boat itself was comfortable with plenty of room for all of us. There is a bathroom onboard and you can even get your Lighthouse passport stamped! I would highly recommend taking any of Camden Harbor Cruises.

Honestly, this was a really relaxing and beautiful experience. The boat felt safe, the rigging was…read morewell maintained, and the seating was surprisingly comfortable considering you're sitting on a wooden sailboat. A cute seal even popped up to say hello!! Being from Las Vegas, I'll admit I had certain expectations about Maine. Blame the media and me not paying enough attention in history class, but I was expecting to see a few more lighthouses. That's definitely not their fault this is why expectations aren't healthy. a little part of me thought it was going to be two awkward hours of me feeling like I was talking too loud Instead, the crew was fantastic, the other passengers were friendly, and for a couple of hours it felt like we had all traveled back in time. It ended up being one of the most enjoyable experiences of our trip. The crew allows passengers to help handle the lines and raise the sails, which was a really cool touch. If that's something you want to do, be quick and be ready because those opportunities go fast! Just an FYI, if you have mobility issues, I would recommend using the restroom before setting sail. The boat's head (restroom) is located below deck and requires navigating stairs.The crew had a sense of humor and professional. kind of bummed they didn't dress like old sailors with pipes:) perfect weather, the scenery. Romantic or family either way a beautiful memory.

Be prepared to have alternative plans…read more We had a night fireworks cruise cancelled for "weather" 36hrs in advance. No signs of inclement weather on any of the weather apps. As predicted, it turned out to be a Beautiful and calm night. We ended up watching the fireworks from shore. They contract out their crews so it may have been that something fell apart on that side for the night trip. Just be prepared that they may cancel for any reason. A local captain we met during the fireworks show in Camden surmised that there was likely something else besides the weather in their decision. Others in our party were committed to getting in a harbor tour so we ended up getting a day sail earlier in the day. It was a Beautiful day. Competent and friendly captain and crew. They did an excellent job of hosting the harbor tour. Absolutely Beautiful boat. Great way to spend some time on the water. Be prepared for alternative plans.

Your amazing & beautiful boat and perfectly crafted cruise shifted us entirely away from the habitual stressors of our lives. The beauty of the Maine coastline and being taken care of by your amazing crew (our Captain Hans, Deck-hand Miles, and Chef Levin), who were all hardworking, talented and a pleasure to spend time with.
