KID-APPROVED ADVENTURE
Lobstering Trip
Ideal for kids and the kid in all of us!
​
Join us aboard the Salty Lewer II for an unforgettable experience. Learn about the Maine Lobster Industry, the life of our hardscrabble lobstermen and women and have an interactive hands-on educational adventure. You and your children can hold a live lobster― if your dare! We might even find some starfish, crabs, urchins, or sand dollars. You can even help check and bait a Maine lobster trap. And, we have Grundens overalls for the kids to wear!
Private one and a half hour family-friendly lobster and scenic cruises are just the right trip length to ensure lots of learning and laughing, and some sightseeing, leaving plenty of time to enjoy other vacation activities when the Salty Lewer II returns to Perkins Cove.
We also offer two-hour trips for those who want the chance to enjoy a bit more time on the water enjoying the scenery along our beautiful southern Maine coast and out to Boon Island, (weather permitting) which is popular for seal viewing.

ECO NATURE TOURS
Scenic Coastal Cruises
Salty Lewer Charters is more than Perkins Cove fishing charters. We also offer Ogunquit scenic coastal cruises for private groups of up to six guests. There is no better way to experience the drama and beauty of the Southern Maine coast than from the water. Enjoy a ‘Salty’ ride along the beaches, rocky shoreline, and sweeping granite cliffs. Weather and sea conditions will allow us to choose the best route― whether south past Nubble Light off the York, Maine coast, north along the Marginal Way and past Ogunquit Beach, or out to cruise by Boon Island. On board the Salty Lewer Capt. Bryan will point out passing sea birds and marine life such as porpoises, whales, and harbor seals.
​
Cruises out to Boon Island, located just 8 miles offshore, offer the chance to see harbor seals basking on and around the island. Trips south of the Ogunquit shoreline include passing by Nubble Lighthouse which promises ‘Insta worthy’ photo opps of the circa 1879 working lighthouse, described as a “majestic beacon.”
​
Custom Scenic Cruises: For groups seeking a little longer offshore excursion we offer coastal cruises tailored to your group’s preferences. Have you always dreamed of seeing the Bush Family Compound in Kennebunkport? Or have you always wanted to watch the sunset offshore sipping libations and chilling with friends? We can make it happen. Capt. Bryan is available to captain customized private charters out of Perkins Cove for two to three hours. Contact us to explore custom coastal cruises.
​
Trip Length: 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Custom cruises 2-3 hours.
Up to 6 passengers. Prices start at $325 for scenic cruises.
