Looking for scenic boat tours near you along the rugged coast of Downeast Maine? Eastport Charter puts you aboard the Delkin, a 28-foot Parker vessel captained by lifelong local Kinny Corthell, for an up-close look at Cobscook Bay and the Bay of Fundy that you simply can't get from shore.

 

Whether you're chasing wildlife, chasing sunsets, or just chasing a quieter pace, this trip is built around your group, up to 6 passengers plus crew, and tailored to what you actually want to see.

A Small Boat Experience Built for Small Groups

Every trip aboard the Delkin is a small boat experience by design, capped at just 6 passengers plus crew. That means no crowded decks, no competing for the captain's attention, and plenty of room to ask questions, request a detour, or just sit quietly and take in the view.

Sightseeing Tours Eastport Visitors Love

Our most popular option is the classic Scenic Tour, a two-hour ride through the harbor and surrounding waters that covers lighthouses, seabirds, seals, and the dramatic tides this region is famous for. For travelers searching for sightseeing tours Eastport is known for, this is the one that shows off the whole neighborhood, quaint fishing coves, working waterfronts, and views you'd otherwise miss entirely. If you're after something with a little more thrill, book the 1 Hour Old Sow Trip and ride through the largest whirlpool in the Western Hemisphere.

A Small Boat Tour Built Around You

Not every trip needs to follow a set script. Every small boat tour we run stays intimate and personal, which means the captain can adjust the route on the fly based on what the group wants to see, whether that's wildlife, photography stops, or just quiet water.

Sunset Cruises Near the Harbor

Few things beat golden hour on the water. If you've been searching for a sunset cruise near you, our evening cruise is timed to catch the light hitting the harbor and surrounding islands just right, a favorite for couples, small groups, and anyone celebrating something special. Pair it with our seasonal Fireworks From the Water trip for an even bigger show.

Lighthouse Views Along the Route

We also get regular requests for lighthouse tours near you, and the Delkin's route naturally passes several of the area's most photographed lights. Hop up on the boat's custom tower, 15 feet above the water, for the best vantage point of the trip.

Private Charters Built Around Your Group

Not every group wants a set itinerary either. For private charters near you, we build the day around you: bird watching, photography, a picnic on a landable island, even a proposal on the water. Bring your own fishing gear or just tell the captain where you'd like to go. If it's within reach of the boat, we'll get you there.
