Head out into Casco Bay for a 1.5-hour lobster harvesting tour. Learn the history of lobstering and lobster traps, as well as the anatomy of the lobster.  Watch Captain Jay haul traps and see what’s inside–get up close and personal with whatever comes up. You may be able to see and touch lobsters, crabs, starfish, sea urchins, and other sea creatures. Swing by the seal ledges on your way back to shore and watch the seals swimming and basking in the sun.

The Captain will arrive with the boat just before your tour, so please don’t be concerned if it is not sitting at the dock waiting. Captain Jay typically wears a navy blue West Wind Lobster Tours t-shirt (for sale on the boat, $15!) or a khaki buttondown, and the boat is bright red.

Sometimes Captain Jay is unreachable when he is preparing the boat–please call 321-213-1146 with concerns, if you don’t reach him, call or text 207-939-5481.
