Have you ever seen a stout little puffin busily flapping its short wings as it zooms overhead? Have you watched a family of harbor seals frolic in the shallows? Have you seen a pair of porpoises speed through the water, or a minke whale rise from the surface in a slow arc?
Come with us on a nature cruise! Every time we steam out of Port Clyde harbor, we know we’ll encounter some intriguing wildlife amid the stunningly beautiful seascapes that surround us. We’ll take you out to Eastern Egg Rock to see an Atlantic puffin nesting site and learn about Project Puffin, a model for restoring seabird populations all over the world. In addition to puffins, we’re always on the lookout for other seabirds, including rare ones.
As we go along, we always provide expert commentary on all that we see, including the area’s rich lobstering history and nature. Watch and learn as we haul a lobster trap just as lobstermen have done for centuries. This cruise always receives rave reviews from passengers of all ages.
Valid through 2014 season.

Welcome aboard...
. . . transporting you through the waters of beautiful Muscongus Bay to enchanting Monhegan Island. You’ll embark in the charming village of Port Clyde, at the tip of the St. George peninsula. Once passengers and freight are loaded on board, we steam out of the harbor past Marshall Point lighthouse. As we follow our protected route among pine-clad islands, we see birds of many varieties. Sometimes, porpoises and small whales rise from the water just beyond our bow. Our course usually takes us by lobstermen hauling their traps, schooners gliding before the wind, and pleasure craft of every description. On the return trip, we pass close to Seal Rock, where we often spot entire families of seals frolicking in the water and basking in the sun.
