Acadia Sunset Cruise aboard the Elizabeth T
Enjoy a scenic cruise along the rugged coast of Acadia National Park aboard our wooden lobster boat, Elizabeth T. Bring your own favorite beverage or food to snack on while you relax into the evening. Expect calm seas as the afternoon breeze settles down. View dramatic granite cliffs, grand summer estates, and wildlife such as seals, porpoise, bald eagles and osprey. The light on the water is incredible as we cruise near the quaint fishing villages on the Cranberry Islands and historic Bear Island Lighthouse. There is nothing like a sunset as seen from the sea. It’s a perfect end to a busy day in Acadia National Park.

Comfort & Safety
An excursion aboard the lobster boat Elizabeth T is a safe, comfortable experience for children and adults. We refurbish the boat every year, inspecting for any necessary repairs and maintenance. Our captains are Coast Guard licensed and we carry all safety gear including lifejackets (adult and child), first aid kits, and fire extinguishers. We operate in the protected waters of Great Harbor, so sea sickness is rare. Although our private charters can accommodate 21 passengers we self-limit our shared tours to approximately 16, ensuring ample room for each guest. There is a small toilet on board, blankets for cool weather, and an electric cooler for drinks. The Elizabeth T is fitted with canvas to keep passengers dry and warm when the conditions are not optimal.
