Nature Cruise
Trip time: 2 hours
Join us aboard The Acadian for a cruise in the protected waters of Frenchman Bay, off Bar Harbor, Maine. We'll cruise past some of the most breathtaking scenery in New England. From the shear granite cliffs of Schooner Head to the smooth rock beaches behind Ironbound Island, you'll see a rugged maritime landscape etched by glaciers and battered by sea & wind. Yet, despite the harsh environment, seals still haul out on the ledges of Flanders Bay to warm up and raise their pups. Eagles still build nests along the shores of the Porcupine Islands and porpoises still surface unexpectedly in the bay for a few breaths of air before continuing their search for food. See the magnificent summer homes, Egg Rock Lighthouse, and wonderful views of Acadia National Park. Frenchman Bay is teeming with life and our naturalists are eager to point it out and interpret it for you.
