Camden Harbor, located in Maine, is known for its scenic views where mountains meet the sea. This 2-hour sailing takes place aboard the schooner Appledore II, a traditional wooden windjammer built in 1978 with modern comfort and seating for up to 49 passengers. The cruise departs from Bayview Landing in Camden Harbor, where guests can assist the crew in raising the sails and try steering the ship. The Appledore II has completed global voyages and sails annually between Camden and Key West, Florida. During the cruise, the boat passes Curtis Island Lighthouse, which has been guiding seafarers since 1836, and moves through Penobscot Bay along a coastline where mountains drop directly into the ocean. Participants can view mansions, historic inns, yachts, and watch for wildlife such as porpoises, eagles, ospreys, seals, and guillemots. Beverages including cocktails, beer, wine, and soft drinks are available for purchase on board. The sailing concludes with sunset views over Mount Battie and the guiding light of Curtis Island Lighthouse as the schooner returns to Camden Harbor. The tour includes the sunset cruise but excludes alcoholic drinks and optional gratuities.
