Scenic Harbor Tour Details

Welcome to the one-hour sight-seeing trip on the Squirrel Island “Mail Boat”, Novelty. On this narrated sightseeing cruise you will see everything Boothbay Harbor has to offer. There will be several quick stops for the "Squirrels". On this boat trip you will see lighthouses, sea life, the rocky shores of Maine, boats of every kind, and many other sights & sounds that make up the feelings people take home that you can only find in Maine. We cruise rain or shine.

Nature: the sights and sounds of sea life and sea breezes, gentle waves and some fog now and then.

The busy harbor: lobster boats, yachts, sailing boats, and even an occasional cruise ship.

The working waterfront: shipyards, fishing piers, coast guard station, marinas, oceanographic research lab.

The scenic shore: lighthouses, rocky cliffs and many islands, with brief stops for Squirrel Island passengers.

Nightlights: lighthouses flashing their beacons to ship at sea, starlight, or moonbeams forming mysterious paths across the sea, village lights reflected in the calm harbor waters.
