Reviews of Maine Coast Cruising

Meghan Halberstadt

What a great activity on our trip to Portland! An awesome experience to remember, and hopefully repeat on a return trip. Phil was a great host, and gave an fun and interesting tour of the coast. A mix of information about the history, landscape, and culture of Portland made time fly on our cruise. A quick swim and a relaxing cruise made for a perfect afternoon! Can’t wait to go back!

Amy Irish

We had an awesome trip with Maine Coast Cruising. The boat was amazing - very comfortable with all necessities. We moored off the Gosslings for a night of camping on the island - taking the paddle boards out for sunset and sunrise. Captain Phil and Kayleigh were great hosts and made our trip a blast!!

Meg Palmer

The experience on Maine Coast Cruising is one in a million. Captain Phil and his crew are knowledgeable, professional and fun! From the moment you step onboard, they go out of their way to make sure your comfortable and have what you need before leaving the dock. There are a few spots on the boat to get a different view, relax and enjoy the cruise around Portland. Our experience was a 10/10 and we look forward to our next opportunity to get on board!

Allison Hurst

Did a private cruise with Captain Phil for my bachelorette weekend and it was the perfect activity! The boat was beautiful, clean, and well-equipped with ice, water, and cups for our crew. Captain Phil was friendly and made us feel welcome and safe on his boat. I’d highly recommend this experience in Portland!

Allie Gill

We just had an amazing time out on the water with Captain Phil! What a way to see Portland! We had never been to most of the places he took us - past gorgeous islands and into little hidden coves. The boat had everything we needed - (even a super clean and quite fancy little bathroom.) It was super easy to get over to the marina from Portland and get out on the water. We’re already planning another trip for later in the summer - can’t recommend this company highly enough! Best summer activity when visiting Portland.

Megan Graham

What a great way to start our Maine vacation! Captain Phil was so personable and he made our afternoon cruise a wonderful experience. We didn’t have a specific itinerary in mind, so he took us on a great cruise that highlighted a variety of sites and areas. Captain Phil offered insightful and entertaining commentary. He was also the perfect host, checking in at the right times and leaving us to enjoy ourselves at others. The boat is really lovely with plenty of different options for seating and viewing and everything you could need to enjoy your time aboard. We also really appreciated his responsiveness to our questions before our cruise and honest answers about food options. We had a fantastic afternoon on the water and would highly recommend Maine Coast Cruising!

Ashley B

Really enjoyed our sunset cruise with Captain Phil. Loved being able to sit on the top deck of the beautiful vessel. Captain Phil gave us just the right amount of information and attention while also letting our family just enjoy the views. Great way to see Portland. Hightly recommend!

Alyssa Pankratz

My family's favorite part of our trip to Maine was the 4-hour charter boat cruise. We had an opportunity to explore, swim, paddle board and experience the beautiful Maine coast from the water. I highly recommend. Phil and Kaylee were knowledgable, friendly, and made the trip relaxing and fun!

David Vanhorn

Just a wonderful trip, Phil and his wife were a great team, made us feel comfortable and let us freeze our a$$ off in the ocean. Couldn't recommend higher!

Grant Faulk

This was the perfect way to experience Maine for our family. The perspective from the water is amazing. Captain Phil was so accommodating and knowledgeable. No crowds, just our family enjoying Maine like a local. Do yourself a favor and book a trip today!

Rachel Mergen

We had a great trip with Captain Phil, couldn't imagine a better way to spend the day than exploring Casco Bay. Captain Phil was both professional and fun. Parking was easy at the Marine. This is a perfect trip for a family outing or a way to relax with friends.

Jacqueline Boucher

We booked this boat trip to celebrate our friend's 30th Birthday. Captain Phil did amazing job of taking us around the coast of Portland. We had a chance to swim off the boat. It was a great day for all of us.

Amy Bouchard

We went out with Phil about a week ago for an evening cruise around Casco Bay and absolutely loved it. Phil and Kayleigh are super professional yet incredibly fun to hang out with - it feels like you are just cruising around with old friends! They are attentive to all of your needs. The boat was incredible. We had so much fun, I will be recommending Maine Coast Cruising to everyone!

John Musacchio

I told Phil we were looking for a sunset cruise and boy did he deliver. We cruised through the pass between Great Diamond Island and Cow Island, grabbed a ball and ate fresh oysters shucked by the captain himself as the sun set on the mainland. Beautiful moment!! Thank you Phil and Kayleigh for an unforgettable experience!! 10 starts if I could give them!!

Chris Williamson

I purchased an evening cocktail cruise for my girlfriend's birthday. We had such an amazing time. A beautiful sunset bathed in ocean island scenery, experienced from the comforts of a luxury cabin cruiser. Captain Phil is a friendly host. I highly recommend Maine Coast Cruising.

Elizabeth Benson

Our family of five (3 adventurous boys) had the best experience. Phil showed us local landmarks and took us to a cove to swim, which was the highlight of our trip. He was so kind, knowledgeable and engaging throughout the tour. My husband and I felt like we were boating with a good friend. We could not recommend Maine Coast Cruising more. A truly wonderful experience.

Ryan Cahill

Book it, this place is AMAZING. I went on this as part of my bachelor party weekend. This was honestly a massive highlight for everyone. Captain Phil is super funny, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable of the area. He gave us a tour of the surrounding islands, and we pulled into Niblets (on an island) for lunch. The scenery alone is worth the trip. We saw multiple seals, porpoises, and a shark. You can also ask about the history of the forts, which look pretty cool. Pro tip, if you’re looking for a drink or a snack after…foul mouth brewery is right next door to the marina. Big thanks to Captain Phil for creating a memorable experience for the gang.

DANIELLA DE LEON

If you are ever in Maine this is a must do!!! We wanted an intimate excursion that would cater to our adventurous side but could accommodate not just me and my husband but my mother, preteen, and our 5 month old baby. Philip and his wife went above and beyond for us and we had so much fun. They were professional, accommodating, fun, and just great people! We got to go swimming in the ocean, paddle boarding, all while listening to great tunes and having great conversation. We will definitely be doing this excursion every year when we are in Maine.

Alana Franklin

It was such an amazing experience spending 6 hours out on the water with some of my favorite people this past Saturday. Phil and Kayleigh were attentive, professional, kind, and just down to earth. They made everyone feel safe while having the best time. I highly recommend them. My friends and I could not stop talking about the cruise (and still can't stop). It was the perfect activity to show my local friends, MA and VT friends the beautiful coast of Maine. Will definitely be booking another cruise for next year! (they also have amazing merchandise as well. I've been wearing my crop hoodie everyday. It's comfy, light and the perfect color)!

Alex Jiao

Booked a 2.5 hr tour and had a blast! Phil was awesome at accommodating us, and showing us the different sights we wanted to see most. Definitely think that this is a worthwhile experience.

Melinda Maddox

This was an amazing experience with Maine Coast Cruising. As someone who used to live in Maine and only gets to visit occasionally, the highlight of our trip was cruising around Casco Bay with Phil and Kayleigh and our friends. The hospitality and experience was top notch.

David Wright

Along with our 7-month-old daughter, my wife and I enjoyed our unforgettable time with Maine Coast Cruising. As new parents and with safety on our minds, we felt totally at ease with Phil's two decades of hands-on, invaluable experience running boats combined with his like-new Cutwater 30 Command Bridge boat, the latter of which must be seen in-person to be truly appreciated. We also felt totally at home with Phil’s warm, welcoming, fun, unassuming personality and demeanor. He and his crew provided us with a truly one-of-a-kind Maine experience. We cruised the waters and explored the islands off of Portland, including Peaks, Great Diamond, and Little Diamond—all while enjoying the comforts of his well-equipped, spacious, safe boat. We give Phil and his crew our highest recommendation, and we look forward to booking again soon!

Patrick Shrader

We took a private, customized cruise with Captain Phil on Friday, June 4th 2021 - It was an amazing experience and beautiful scenery/tour. He was able to anchor in a cove area for about an hour while we enjoyed each others company, our cocktails and appetizers. Between the old forts, beautiful islands and seal you can't get much better. We will be booking again soon!

Ciaran Gill

I cannot recommend an experience with the team at Maine Coast Cruising highly enough. Kayleigh and Phil run the boat with an enthusiasm for Portland, Casco Bay and its surrounds that is so informative, interesting and fun! They were so willing to find a plan that worked for us and showed us little coves and islands that were real hidden gems away from the ferries and crowds. The amenities on board were excellent - so much space aboard for a relaxed trip with our friends watching Casco Bay go by. We already can't wait until our next trip later this summer!

Sujatha and Anil Goli

We had a wonderful time on our cruise ride with Phil! Him and his girlfriend made sure our ride was smooth and exciting. We made a lot of great new memories for our family on his boat, and it was a unique and amazing experience. Thank you Phil for the amazing boat ride!

Timothy O'Donnell

Had a great experience with Skipper Phil. We had a an 8, 6 and 3 year old with us that had never been on a boat before - my 8 year old worried about sea sickness, my 6 year old worries about sharks and my 3 year old - well, she is 3. So it was a perfect way to get them used to the boat and how great the water can be! The boat is super functional and Phil is really easy to work with if you have pending weather, etc. We will make this part of our annual trip for sure! Thanks MCC!

Marissa Guidry

Phil and Kayleigh were great hosts! They made the experience enjoyable and worry-free, especially Kayleigh who was very good about helping us navigate the boat and feel at home! Thank you Maine Cost Cruising for a wonderful day on the ocean!

Bob B

Our family had a fantastic voyage on this beautiful vessel. Captain Dave was great and very knowledgeable about the area and forthcoming with great info. I will certainly be calling Phil for another trip on next visit.

Jason Lantz

Stop searching right now and book with Captain Phil. It will be worth it! Phil is a top notch captain and guide- fun, safe, knowledgeable, experienced, and overall fun guy! His boat is phenominal - clean, comfortable, modern, and ready with Phil to provide a great time. Phil and crew seemed truly committed to making our trip fun and memorable. I will definitely book again and will be recommending often! Enjoy your cruise!

Patrice McCarron

If you want a unique Maine experience, Maine Coast Cruising is a must for your bucket list. It was such a fun and relaxing trip cruising Casco Bay, its small coves and seeing its amazing secret beaches. Anchoring for a refreshing swim was the icing on the cake. Thank you Captain Phil and crew!

Christina Poe

My parents and I had an amazing time cruising! Dave and Phil took great care of us! Dave was amazing and customized the experience for an awesome time! We loved that he listened to our requests and made sure we had an excellent experience. We will definitely be going again!

Anna Ackerman

We had a fantastic time with Phil out on his boat in Casco Bay! We explored a beautiful area next to Long Island where we were able to paddle board, walk along a white sandy beach (with not a soul around), jump into the water, and enjoy the beauty of the Maine coast. Ice cold drinks and an excellent playlist made it feel like a truly relaxing escape. What an amazing day. Thank you Captain Phil!

Paul Lachance

MCC is great! The boat is clean, comfortable and sizable with great inside and outside places to hang out. The Phil and all of the crew are very experienced and safe. Best part is the beautiful spots all around Casco Bay that we saw, especially as you get away from the busier Portland Harbor. We saw amazing islands, wildlife (eagles!) and lighthouses. This is an awesome way to spend a day on the water.

Justin Smulski

Phil at MCC took me and a group of friends out for an awesome cruise and then dropped us at a gorgeous island in Casco Bay for a night to do some tent camping. There are so many charter options out there--use MCC if you want to put a truly adventurous trip together! Phil is kind, professional, experienced, and an all around awesome guy. We've already booked another trip.

John Vitalo

Phil was a terrific captain and guide; we thoroughly enjoyed our time on the water with him. We not only got to experience the beauty of Casco Bay on the water, but we also learned alot from Phil about boating in the area.

Chelsea Gribbin

We had an awesome time out on the boat for an evening cruise. It was foggy but we went out around the islands and Phil pointed out the different islands and coves and was a great host! Definitely recommend take a cruise with Maine Coast Cruising!!

Jeff W. Benson

Don’t miss out on this family fun adventure! Maine Coast Cruising is a great way to spend time on the water as a family. Thanks Captain Phil for a memorable afternoon on the water!

Jenna Roane

I am a native Mainer and I went for a day cruise with five other ladies. It was so much fun and Phil was very accommodating. I would highly recommend this experience to everyone, whether visiting or living locally.

We loved our afternoon cruise with captain Dave! The boat is gorgeous and the perfect place to relax while cruising through the bay. I highly recommend booking Maine coast cruising!

This was the best way to spend the day on our vacation. We felt completely at home on the boat for the afternoon. We did a four hour tour, brought a picnic and went paddle boarding! I couldn’t recommend this adventure enough! Beautiful views and lovely crew.

My boyfriend surprised me with a wonderful sunset cruise with Captain Phil. He was accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. We can’t wait to book another cruise with him!
