As we cruise the waters around Portland Harbor we will make stops at Portland Breakwater Light, Spring Point Light and Ram Island Ledge Light before stopping at Maine’s oldest and most iconic lighthouse, Portland Headlight. This historic beacon, with its striking architecture and stark coastal backdrop, is a sight to behold from the perspective of the Atlantic Ocean as seafarers have done for more than 200 years. After photos and information about this iconic lighthouse, we continue the ride along the rocky shores of Cape Elizabeth to Two Lights State Park, whose twin lighthouses perch atop dramatic cliffs.

Our best chance for wildlife comes during the next leg of the ride as we cruise open waters to Halfway Rock Lighthouse, a true maritime relic. Standing proudly on a remote ledge in the open ocean, it has guided mariners through thick fog and turbulent waters for over a century. Seals are often found hanging on the rocks and feeding in the nutrient-rich waters.

We had a great time! I totally recommend this tour to other visitors. The only way to see some of the lighthouses on this tour is by water.

Fun experience. The company was very good with communication and told us to dress for 20 degrees cooler on the water which we were grateful for. The seats were almost like a saddle which was very comfortable

Fantastic! Weather was perfect and the boat ride around to the lighthouses was awesome. We stopped at each light plenty of time to take photos. Our captain and first mate were so informative. Thoroughly enjoyed and thoroughly recommend.

The tour was canceled about seven hours before we were to board. I am trying desperately to get a refund from Viator as the tour company told me they cannot help because I booked through Viator.
