Quick Details
Maine has been harvesting oysters for a long time, and now there are over 150 farms along our 3,500 miles of rugged coastline growing a wide and delicious variety. Oysters here grow slowly, soaking up the flavors of the foods they eat and influenced by their water temperature and salinity. You’ll taste the differences as we serve up 3 local varieties on this adventure! Your guide will also educate you on the life and growth of oysters, their history, and curative powers!
We will gather for your 2 hour adventure on the UB85 repurposed Joseph S. Kennedy, a former navy launch built in 1985. To find it, walk down the pier entrance going past Scales Restaurant at 72 Commercial Street. At the end of the pier, you will find the boat ready to board, providing new, comfortable seating, a head (bathroom) and ice buckets full of cold beers/wine/cocktails/waters for purchase.
On your scenic cruise of Casco Bay Harbor, you will be enjoying views of lighthouses, military forts on the nearby islands, marine life and more! On board, guests will be treated to fresh oysters as quickly as we can shuck them with an expert shucker on board,
