Step back in time and immerse yourself in Maine's maritime heritage on a sailing trip onboard the only historic day sailing schooner out of Camden. Soak up views of Maine's lighthouse-dotted coastline while the crew points out wildlife, tells you the history of the area, and shows you local landmarks. Get hands on by learning to haul sails or just relax with a bottle of wine and a picnic (byob).

Cruise Camden’s scenic coast aboard the Appledore II, a historic wooden schooner that's a thrilling taste of traditional Maine sailing. You can take the helm, raise the sails, or just find a comfortable spot on deck; an environmentally-friendly alternative to motorized Camden cruises, this sailing tour is a great way to explore the coast with just the sounds of the wind, sails, and sea to keep you company.

A 2+ hour cruise around the bay with a VIP stop off at the iconic Young's lobster pound for one of their famed lobster rolls.

Early morning on Penobscot Bay has a magic all its own. The water is calm, the air is fresh, and the bay is quiet in a way it simply won't be later in the day. Morning winds tend to be lighter, creating a gentle sea state and exceptional visibility — ideal conditions for spotting the wildlife that calls these waters home. Porpoises, harbor seals, and birds of prey are all more commonly seen in the early hours, making this sail a favorite among birdwatchers, nature lovers, and anyone who loves a peaceful start to the morning. Departing at 9am, this is also a wonderful choice for nervous sailors, families with young children, and elderly guests — the calm conditions make for an easy, comfortable experience on the water. Your captain knows these waters well and will make the most of every minute out on the bay. A great day in Midcoast Maine starts on the water. Come join us.
