What a fun way to spend the morning. On the Maine coast on a sail boat…read more Not much wind this morning but the crew took care of us. They did provide beverages while sailing. And to time to answer questions about the sights. They have opportunities for people or kids to help out with the ropes and pull the sails. It's two hours so plan ahead especially if you are thinking g about bringing kids. Remember you are close with 25 others not related to you. There is a toilet but believe deck so you have to navigate a ladder. Ordering tickets online was easy and they send you notifications via text and email. There is street parking but limited so plan ahead. Check in was easy and boarding was a breeze. But not enough of a breeze for sailing. Ha ha. Loved it!

What a great experience! I am so glad that my wife booked this trip for us. It was such a great…read moretime. The captain was great as was her first mate. She did a fantastic job sailing, having good conversation, and keeping things fun. She also knew a lot about sailboats in general and explained the differences in the other sailboats we passed. Lots of safety aboard and they do a great job having the visitors help with the needs of the boat. It was absolutely gorgeous that day and we could not have had better conditions to sail. Wind was good. Water was good. Times were good! We got to see a bunch of lighthouses and many wildlife too. All in all, a good way to spend a day on the water. They do sell booze if you want a drink. You only live once, do the things!! I would do it again in a heartbeat!! '26 - 32

For $100 (cash or check only), you receive a 55-minute narrated boat tour, a bonafide Downeast feast (fish chowder, 1 lb. of steamers, 2 lobsters, corn on the cob, a baked potato, an onion, a hard-boiled egg, a large piece of blueberry cake & either coffee, tea, iced tea or water). You can purchase sodas ($2) or alcoholic beverages. We indulged in the light & tasty Cabbage Island Aide ($10), with Pinnacle blueberry vodka, pink lemonade & a splash of club soda garnished with Maine blueberries. Only cash is accepted for drinks and gift shop purchases. After finding a picnic table, either indoors or out, your server will take your drink order & bring your fish chowder. Shortly afterwards, the dinner bell will ring & you head down to the pit where the food is cooked to pick up your meal. Our delightful young server, Griffin, graciously offered to pick up our trays & bring them to our table. He remained attentive & solicitous the entire time we were there. We couldn't have asked for better service. There is a gratuity jar on each table. Tip generously! These kids do a fabulous job! We were also pleased that the two Moore brothers who have owned this family business for 38 years stopped by every table individually to ensure that all were having a good time. And at the end of the day, they stood on the dock waving as our boat left Cabbage Island. Such a gracious gesture! I'm looking forward to making this an annual event. Please be aware, though, that parking is expensive in Boothbay Harbor. There is metered street parking, if you can find an open spot, but be prepared to walk a distance to the ticket booth. Close by lot parking cost $50.

Cash only for the trip No credit cards Boothbay Harbor is an amazing place. On the ride into Boothbay there are approximately 150 flags or more attached to telephone polls saluting fallen soldiers.

If you've never been sailing before, you will get a great introduction, and if you have been sailing before, this is the best way to go to get out on the water in this area.

Recommend bringing your own sunscreen and snacks (especially if you have food allergies); water is provided.

We booked this lobster boating tour months ago for my father's 70th birthday trip -- the main…read moreactivity he was excited about and something we were all looking forward to. 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.

The sailor we used to ride with died this past summer, so we can't speak for the skipper anymore (we are very sad to have lost this wonderful young man!!)!! He was great at giving anyone who asked for it; a ride to remember. He was a gifted sailor who could maneuver that boat between boats and buoys like noone's business! This smallish sailing vessel will give you the taste of sailing in Maine as it traces it's route to the outer harbor and back zigzagging between sailboats and lobsterboats. The sailors will tell you about the lobster business at the turn of the century, so it's an outting AND a history lesson.

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.
