Educational Eco Tour 2:00 (Sailing 1:00 after Labor day)
Sailing Daily $60/person (child 12 & under $45)
As we set sail with environmental educator Bonnie Schmidt, she will present an excellent educational narrative about the history of Rockport Harbor. We will learn about Indian Islands historic light, lobstering, processing of lime, ice, shipbuilding and the story of famous Andre the Seal. If wind and tide are in our favor, we will head to Robinson’s Rock, the birthplace of Andre the Seal. On low tide we often see a large colony of harbor seals in their natural habitat. With a fresh afternoon breeze, Schooner Heron will take the bay in her stride and mesmerize us all on a memorable sail across the Penobscot Bay. There is nothing to compare to sailing a Maine Schooner.

We suggest that people wear the proper clothing for the sail. It is always cooler on the water. As the saying goes, there’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing choices!
