Scenic lobster and seal cruise

The ship’s captain let my son “steer” the ship and he also got to see a lobster up close! My husband has been coming to Maine more than 30 years and he loved the scenic tour of the coastline in a way he hadn’t seen before. Plus it was an excellent way to beat the heat.

Definitely the ride the take

We are local to the area and have been on a few boat trips in the area and this was by far our favorite. Definitely the one to take if you have little kids. Our 4 year old LOVED the lobsters and getting a chance to steer the boat. Very friendly crew and overall a lot of fun!

Lobster tour, little kid friendly.

We did the Lobster tour and took our 4 year old grandson. This tour company is first rate! From the kids at the front office to the crew on Kylie’s Chance. It even rained on us, and everyone was cool! We live here year round and this is the first time out on this boat. We will highly recommend and be back! Thanks so much!

Perfect activity for families with young kids

Had a great time with 2 little ones. Perfect length for our group at an hour and a half. Loved getting out on the water and being able to view and handle the lobster. Both kids even got to drive the boat!

Memorable lobster tour!

My nephew and I enjoyed the trip with First Chance. The captain and his mates were very friendly, knowledgeable and interactive with us on the boat. The views were spectacular, the lobster pull very informative and the time on the sea relaxing. Would choose them again in a heartbeat! Good value for my money.
