Sailing Acadia National Park--sail Acadia, Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor aboard a traditional sloop with Downeast Friendship Sloop Charters.
Description
Downeast Friendship Sloop Charters offers two types of trips from both Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor, on the quietside of Acadia National Park. Private excursions provide guests with a unique experience on the water; on private charter, you are our only guests--the boat is yours for the duration of your trip--and this allows for a flexible and personalized itinerary. We realize that some guests may prefer to share a charter with other parties and we can accommodate this request through our semi-private trips. Please see the Rates section for details concerning the cost of these two types of trips. Our trips include an appetizer and soft drinks, and you may bring along cocktails or a bottle of wine if you like.
We make every effort to honor individual preferences and enjoy designing tours with our guests' desires in mind. The following information details just a few of the sailing tours we offer:
Half-Day Sail: Bar Harbor and Southwest Harbor
Our most popular trip is the half-day sail, which runs about three to three-and-a-half hours. During a typical half-day trip in Southwest Harbor you will sail past Bear Island Lighthouse, around the Cranberry Islands, and possibly out to Baker Island Light! On a Bar Harbor tour you will cruise the famous Porcupine Islands, witness spectacular summer "cottages," and head out to Egg Rock Light where the local seal population makes its home. This trip provides the perfect amount of time to get the feel of sailing a traditional boat on the coast of Maine. Wildlife is easily spotted and there is plenty of opportunity to haul the sails and take a turn at the wheel. 3-3 1/2 hrs
