Entertainment & Activities

Ferry service to the Casco Bay Islands can be transportation for some and a tour for others. The "mailboat crusies" offer informal commentary from the boat captain with stops at 5-6 of the Casco Bay Islands. The full trip takes 2-3 hours and is fun with snacks, a camera, and a book or friend to talk to. great for a sunny day. If you have an afternoon in the Summer you could also take a ride one of the Islands and spend the afternoon on the beach exploring these small communities
