Charter Adventures

  The 2 hour tour with Captain Bill was the favorite part of our vacation. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He picked us up on one of the Commercial Street... read more wharfs. We saw light houses, forts, lobster traps, and islands in the bay. My family of 6 went on the tour. It was so much more personal than one of the bigger (crowded) sight seeing tours. It was well worth the time and money!

  What a great day! 4 hours with Capt John for a birthday celebration with 5 boys, 22 years old. Two of the boys had never been on a boat on... read more the ocean, What! We left the marina and headed out between Peaks and the Diamond Islands into Hussey sound. Mackerel was the first fish to catch then we went on to Stripah's! Everyone on the boat caught at least one striper and or mackerel.
Everyone was thrilled and would like to do it again!
I will book again in July for fishing and tour with the family.
Thanks Captain John and First Mate Nate for an incredible day
Get out on the bay everyone!

  We had a fantastic time with Captain John and Casco Bay Adventures! We went with younger children, and they had a blast! Captain John taught them how to catch and... read more measure lobsters. They also went fishing, saw an island full of seals, pretended to drive the boat, and went swimming. He answered tons of questions I had about the Casco Bay Islands, and took us to see some of the further places like Cliff Island, and some neighboring islands. I highly recommend them, great fun for all ages!

  Casco Bay Adventures was AWESOME! I found their website after a quick Google search when I was looking for a last minute activity for four middle school aged boys on... read more a perfect Maine summer day. I sent a google form on the website and asked what availability they had THAT day and within twenty minutes I received a call from Captain John. He explained what time he had and an hour later we were all on his boat departing from Spring Point Marina. He was a warm, friendly, knowledgable, low-key, easy-going guy who made the experience both fun and relaxed. John had nuggets of trivia and information to engage the boys. He showed each boy how to operate a fishing rod and we spent timing fishing. I have so many pictures of smiling and laughing boys with beautiful Portland Headlight and all of Casco Bay in the background. Captain John was engaged the entire time, helping and giving advice and pointers. We fished in a couple spots and then went to lobster. He taught the kids about how to identify the gender, how to measure and determine if the lobster was a "keepah." I would highly recommend reaching out to Captain John and his team at Casco Bay Adventures for a run boat adventure in Casco Bay and we surely will be doing that again with our next family visitors!

  We had a wonderful afternoon with Captain John. We learned about local lighthouses, forts and lobsters. Captain John made the afternoon fun for the kids ages 7-10 and each got... read more to drive the boat. I highly recommend this as any add on to your time in the Portland area.
