Join our Lighthouse Lovers Cruise with Portland Discovery
Experience the iconic lighthouses, forts, lobster boats and wildlife!
About
Enjoy this narrated 60-minute scenic cruise through busy Casco Bay and its innermost islands to see lighthouses, forts, lobster boats, seals, and seabirds. As many as four lighthouses can be seen including a close up view of Portland Headlight, Maine’s oldest and most photographed lighthouse.
More info
Our boats have fully enclosed cabins, and open but covered upper decks, so a little light rain doesn’t stop us as long as there is some visibility. Factors for cancellation include strong winds, heavy fog, downpours or anything making for unsafe conditions.
What to bring
You never know exactly what kind of weather you will get in Maine, but it’s safe to assume it will be cooler out on the water and bringing a light or heavy jacket is a good idea. We recommend sneakers as opposed to open-toed shoes for better stability.
Are Tours Handicap Accessible?
Canes and walkers are fine on either tour, though a foldable walker may be needed to fit on the trolley. There are three steps onto the trolley and there is a ramp that leads down to the boat that can vary in steepness, but our friendly, courteous drivers and deckhands are more than happy to lend a hand. Wheelchairs are not able to fit on the trolleys and MOST times manual wheelchairs are fine on the boats, but typically have to be lifted on, so weight restrictions can apply.
Are Tours Dog Friendly?
Our Tours are dog friendly! Provided your dog is friendly, well-behaved, and leashed they are welcome on our tours. Dogs cannot take up a seat of a paying passenger, so dogs must be in a lap or on the floor/deck near your feet.
