Shawn and Grey did a fabulous job explaining all about lobsters! It's a 2 hour trip and very interactive. During the first part we went out to the lighthouse where the seals and sea gulls bask in the sun. While there we also saw an eagle. The second hour was spent pulling in lobster traps and our education on lobsters. Grey explained a lot about lobsters and we all got to hold a lobster if we wanted to. They put rubber bands on the claws so it is safe to hold them. We were there in July and I just found my note about writing a review because we thought it was a terrific lobster tour. My family would really recommend this tour while in Bar Harbor! Hope you get to go!!

Great lobster boat tour, got to see a variety of sea life including porpoises, harbor seals, eagles, and of course lobsters. Very informative staff who know a lot about the area, lobsters and lobster fishing. It was also interactive as everybody got the opportunity, if you wanted, to hold a live lobster. Also, all lobsters caught on this boat are released so it's great for everybody. Only down side is it is a little pricey, wish they offered a family package.

This was a great way to learn about Bar Harbor's life beyond it's tourist industry. Our guide was a girl who has spent many years visiting and then living on Little Cranberry. She was able to talk about lobstering, birds, seals, and the history of Bar Harbor much like a local. We couldn't have chosen a better afternoon activity.

The staff were fine and the boat comfortable. There was a South wind blowing up the bay and it was choppy, with small swells. It was just past low tide, so we expected great deal disability. The boat course took us near potential seal basking areas, but the surf was pounding the area. There should be a plan b when nature dictates a course change. The lobsterwoman docent, was unable to be heard from the stern and frankly, should cut her routine in half. We enjoyed the scenery immensely, but not much else.
