Private Half and Full Day Tour

Situated along Maine’s rugged coastline, Casco Bay is a harbor of endless discovery. The waters surrounding Portland offer countless inlets, quiet coves, and over 30 islands that shimmer against the Atlantic’s cool breeze. Portland Charter Boat takes full advantage of this striking seascape, delivering tailored private half- and full-day tours that invite up to six guests to experience Casco Bay from a uniquely personal vantage point.

Portland Charter Boat specializes in custom adventures, whether you’re after a peaceful harbor cruise, scenic island-hopping, or a sunset sail framed by expansive sky and sea. Each tour is crafted to deliver an experience that matches your group’s interests and pace. Swim in hidden coves off the beaten path, step foot on isolated islands, or simply unwind with your own beverages while watching seals and seabirds drift by.

The company’s flexible itineraries range from 3.5-hour half-day trips to immersive full-day voyages that open up the bay’s lesser-traveled corners. What distinguishes Portland Charter Boat is the combination of exclusivity and local knowledge. Their vessels are sized perfectly for small groups who want to avoid the crowds and dive deeper into the bay’s natural beauty and marine life.

Captains draw on extensive experience navigating these waters to introduce guests to the bay’s distinct glacial rock formations, salt marshes, and historic sites without sacrificing comfort or safety. Operating out of 72 Commercial Street in downtown Portland, this charter service offers a front-row seat to the living seascape of Maine’s coast. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a returning Maine enthusiast, the ability to curate your time on Casco Bay makes these private tours an outstanding choice for anyone craving a distinctive, hands-on maritime adventure just a short drive from Portland’s urban energy.
