Lighthouse tour aboard the schooner Heron in Camden Maine

Lighthouses were meant to be seen from the water. Many of these lighthouses are not accessible and cannot be seen from shore. Step aboard a restored lobster fishing boat and join your host, Captain Alan Philbrick. Captain Al, of The Lively Lady Too, will share his knowledge about the wildlife of the bay and will provide you with information and history about the lighthouses.

Depending on the route, you will see up to 7 different lighthouses, which for more than 150 years have been guiding sailors in the Penobscot Bay. On each tour, you may also see some of the Maine coast's abundant wildlife - seals, porpoise, eagles and various sea birds.

See more information about central Maine lighthouses below as well as some tours available from the local area. We have also included information about the Cape Elizabeth light as one of our rooms is named after it. Check our specials page for pricing on select tour packages. See soem tour schedules below.
