Wonderful trip. They were great with kids!
We had a great time. My husband, daughter, and I enjoyed a two hour tour of the bay along with a friend. Captain Peter and Diane were very accommodating and made the trip very special for my seven year old. We would definitely recommend the tour.
We loved our boating experience with Peter and Diane. First, we got to see beautiful waters and islands and learned a little history of the area, including Bustin’s Island where Diane spent summers as a kid. Imagine a whole awesome summer on an island with no electricity! The trip was loved by all 3 generations of our family as we saw seals, various ducks and some of us saw a breaching whale! We all got a chance to don waterproof gear, pull up lobster traps and see little feathery skeleton shrimp and pop sea squirts at each other. We learned about lobsters and crabs and how to bait a trap. Two hours was the perfect time to get a taste of lobstering followed by a taste of lunch in town. Thanks, Peter and Diane
I gave a Saturday evening tour to my parents for my Dad's birthday. They LOVED it. They went on a beautiful September evening and enjoyed the sail and all the information provided about oyster farming. Plus they said the oysters they sampled were AMAZING! They could not say enough great things about the tour. I highly recommend it!
Wife and I took the coastal cruise with the lobster roll. It was a beautiful ride around the harbor and the many islands throughout. Saw a wonderful sunset and heard alot about the history of the area and the harbor. The lobster roll was good too!
Lobster Demo cruise is all that and more
Captain Peter and his first mate Diane provide our family with a once in a lifetime experience. Diane told the best local stories and Captain Peter shared his knowledge of lobstering in simple understandable terms. Highly recommend!
Thank you Peter and crew (on and off duty 🙂 ) for taking my husband and I on a cruise out to see the Harpswell Lobster Boat Races! What a fun day and a true Maine experience. Everything was made easy and comfortable for us and we even learned a little about Freeport on the trip out. Thanks!!
Captain Peter and crew were wonderful. I will definitely do this again with my family.
What a fabulous tour and delicious oysters and lobster roll. Loved learning about the art of farming oysters. Laura was great; fellow tour participants wonderful. We even learned how to shuck oysters, which we did professionally when we got home with a dozen scrumptious Mere Point Oysters! Looking forward to our lobster tour next year.
So much fun as well as a learning experience. My wife and I were in Freeport on vacation and took one of Seacoast’s Lobster Tours. Captain Pete (and crew) were friendly, safe, knowledgeable, and funny. Would highly recommend for families or for people of any age. So GREAT!!!
Carol and Peter were very knowledgeable on the tour and answered all our questions. They provided water and sunscreen, along with the gloves to hold the lobsters. Their knowledge of all the islands was great. A tour I would not likely have anywhere else. Thank you
Loved everything about our trip, you won't be disappointed!!
I visited the Mere Point Oyster tour. Peter and Kat were awesome hosts! Captain Peter took us out to the Oyster farm, pointing out landmarks and giving us information about the area along the way. Kat took care of drink orders and requests. After about a 30-minute boat ride, we made it out to the Mere Point float on the water surrounded by the oyster farm. That was a really cool experience. We got off the boat and onto the Mere Point Oyster float. They explained the cultivating and husbandry of oyster farming and we got to eat fresh shucked oysters right on the float. It's about as fresh as you can get and they were delicious. We also each got a lobster roll... I'm not from New England and have only had a few lobster rolls in my life. This was far-and-away the best lobster roll I've ever eaten. It wasn't greasy and covered in butter like others I've had. Then we back to the wharf and experienced a gorgeous sunset. The weather was perfect. Overall, it was a very unique experience, well worth the money. I would highly recommend it.
I loved using Seacoast to go to Eagle Island. The hours are perfect—enough time to see what you want with out feeling rushed or that it’s dragging. Peter and Cat were chill, accommodating, helpful. Peter is very responsive to emails/questions. They even made sure and called people who were running late etc. will definitely use again for the same tour, or try another one!
Great boat trip August 6, 2023 ‘Birds of Casco Bay’! Captain Peter did great, as did Guide Derek Lovitch❗️ A Tops birding outing of 2023! Will return for this boat‼️
Absolutely wonderful experience with Peter and his team on Seacoast Tours of Freeport - great communication, comfortable boat, super knowledgable and fun tour of the harbor and islands. I bought tix to the special oyster float dinner with Mere Point Oyster Co. that they partner with and it was simply outstanding! Will definitely recommend this company to visitors to Maine and Mainers alike!
Wonderful trip for our family from Freeport out to Eagle Island. Definitely a BEST OF MAINE experience.
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, the boat ride filled with interesting stories about the islands and Eagle Island had magical trails for walking. The movie and docent made up for the fact that the house/museum was closed but the house was arranged for “peeping Tom” viewing.
Great boat tour!! Eagle Island was beautiful. I saw a loon, seals, & found sea glass. Captain Pete and Pam were awesome. Sometimes it was hard to hear what they were saying. Highly recommend!!!
Top notch service!
Wonderful oyster tour! I took my visiting family on this tour. Captain Peter and his deckhand Kat were very friendly and knowledgable about the locality. We visited Mere Point Oyster Farm where a representative answered questions about the oyster business and served oysters. Also included a great lobster roll which was 100% lobster meat, not mostly mayo like in many restaurants. Most delicious.
Great experience
Peter & Laura put on a great lobstering tour complete with history of the area and lobster traps.
My sister and I had the best time on this lobster tour. Peter and Laura were a blast! You can tell they truly enjoyed giving this tour and getting to know their customers. They made sure everyone got the best experience and really didn't rush through any portion of the tour. I got to hold a lobster and even got to kiss one. I would recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. Definitely a highlight of our trip!
Captain pate was amazing. He knew everything about the bay. The oysters at merepoint were delicious and I highly recommend!
Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable, beautiful day to be out on the boat
A wonderful time on the Pamela B with Peter and Kat! Eating on the Mere Point barge was a unique experience, having oysters freshly shucked from the bay was the highlight!
Highly recommend the oyster farm tour (with lobster roll)! The crew, boat ride, farm tour, oysters, everything was fantastic. So happy with this find.
We had a great time and highly recommend this tour!! Peter and Carrie are very friendly and knowledgeable. The advance communication prior to the tour was so very helpful for planning our Maine adventure. Learning about and seeing an active oyster farm was fascinating!
The oyster farm tour was a truly fantastic experience. I hope to go back and do their other tours.
Such a great tour! Laura and Peter made the trip super interesting, and their partnership with Mere Point Oysters was really well organized, informative, and fun. Highly recommend.
Great tour. Fantastic communication before and what a fun and educational day.. oh and fun.
Laura and Peter are terrific tour guides. Kind and knowledgeable, and we all had a great time
Peter and his staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. Peter provides easy booking and a confirmation email with parking details as well as a shuttle! Wow! What service! Thanks everyone at Seacoast Tours of Freeport!
We had a great time with Captain Peter on the lobstering tour last Sunday! Everything was easy to follow and they were extremely accommodating! It was a great way to enjoy Freeport and learn about the wildlife and area by boat. Definitely recommend their tours!
Amazing! We went on an oyster tour with Seacoast Tours of Freeport and visited Mere Point Oyster Company. Peter and Laura were fantastic in making sure we were taken care of from booking to docking and everything in between. They shared history about Freeport as we made our way to the oyster farm and pointed out the seals and egret along the way. What a beautiful day on the water making memories that will last a lifetime.
Peter and Mary at Seacoast made us feel welcome from the moment we got in the van at LL Bean. Peter was extremely knowledgeable about the area and willingly shared that with us. Our trip to Eagle Island was a joy. I would recommend bringing a lunch to have on the island. Also use their free van service as there is limited parking at the waterfront. I highly recommend this trip with seacoast.
They were so welcoming, informative and entertaining!!
Milhollands!! Good people
