A quiet and relaxing alternative to other Bar Harbor boat tours, Island Cruises is based out of Bass Harbor. We have been family owned and operated for over 20 years. Our primary vessel, the 40-foot R.L. Gott, is a “lobster” style passenger boat that carries a small and friendly crowd of no more than 49 passengers.
We’re the perfect venue to see seals, porpoises, herons, osprey, eagles, and other wildlife up close and personal, and haul a lobster trap or two—all while experiencing beautiful scenery and learning the lore of Bass Harbor and Maine’s rich fishing history from local captains Kim and Eli Strauss. Whether you enjoy wildlife or just peaceful scenery, Island Cruises has a great trip
