Our picturesque harbor is often called the boating capital of Maine and on any given day visitors will experience spectacular views of Burnt Island Lighthouse, our iconic footbridge, and boats of all varieties and sizes.
Our waterfront downtown is dotted with shops and galleries offering your passengers the chance to bring home a piece of Maine.
Boothbay Harbor is the perfect town for a scatter lunch. With restaurant choices offering seafood specialties to casual sandwiches, there is something for everyone aboard your coach. Sticking together is fine with us too.

Area attractions specialize in working with the tour industry including Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Boothbay Railway Village, Maine State Aquarium, Carousel Dinner Theater, Cabbage Island Clam Bakes, Cap’n Fish’s Scenic Boat Trips, Balmy Days Cruises, Hardy Boat Cruises, and the Schooner Eastwind.
