Portland by Land & Sea

Enjoy a scenic drive of Portland, a visit to the oldest commissioned lighthouse in the United States, and a 2-hour harbor cruise.  Drive through the quaint streets of the Old Port where street lanterns highlight a gracious mix of architectural styles. Once the home of the warehouse district, the brick buildings have been transformed into charming restaurants, pubs and galleries. 

Just outside the city center and along the beautiful rocky coast of Cape Elizabeth is Fort Williams, once a military defense outpost and now site of America's oldest lighthouse, Portland Head Light. Embark an authentic wooden schooner for a leisurely sail on Casco Bay, and experience the beauty of Maine's rugged coastline featuring lighthouses, seals, and seabirds.  Join the crew as they hoist the sails, take command at the ship's wheel, or simply relax and enjoy the calm waters of Casco Bay.  Under full sail, glide past Portland's bustling waterfront, secluded islands, and historic forts perched along the bay.
