We just took this tour this am and it was great! Its 7 mikes out, takes 45 min one way and is a beautiful ride through the islands of Maine. The captain and his assistant pointed out seals, porpoises, osprey, cormorants, etc the summer home of Admiral Peary- explorer of the North Pole was very interesting as well! Both adults and kids would enjoy it!
We have been going on the Atlantic Seal for years and we absolutely love it. It is so much fun and a great experience for kids. The island has a great history and is quite a sight to see. On the ride back from the island Captain Tom pulls up lobster traps and you learn about lobersting.
Had reservations and the boat never showed. Pissed.
