Perfect sunset cruise - We had a great guide, Mark. He had colorful information that transitioned into the next topic and kept our attention. We saw seals, bald eagles, dolphins and learned history and pertinent current facts. We were treated to the most vivid sunset.

Sunset Cruise of Casco Bay - The Captain was a great narrator, full of knowledge, easy to listen to. We learned a lot . This cruise was truly enjoyable. weather was mild, brief shower, no big deal. Attentive crew. Seeing and hearing about the surrounding islands and at least 4 lighthouses was very interesting. The bar with snacks for purchase seemed good although we didn't partake. The boat is in great condition.

Best Views of Portland-Lighthouse-Ocean - My daughter (13) and I took the Sea Sunset Tour on June 29th. The Captain and guide were great, and the views were breathtaking. If you want some of those once-in-a-lifetime photos from Portland/Lighthouse, this tour is a must. The experience and knowledge alone are worth the trip, but the views put this over the top and make it a must for anyone visiting Portland.
