Lulu Lobster Boat Ride

Went on a boat tour with Lulus and had a great time. The boat Capitan was friendly and we checked (3-4) traps which resulted in one lobster and a handful of crabs. The boat guide was very nice and entertaining with plenty of local knowledge. Boat was clean and seating was roomy. Would not recommend sitting in the front left if you want to take pictures as the views are limited and pictures through the windows didn’t turn out well but otherwise a pleasant experience.

If you’re craving a fun, hands-on taste of Maine’s coastal life, Lulu Lobster Boat Tour is a must-do. We hopped aboard in Bar Harbor for a breezy 2-hour cruise, where our captain (a salty local with endless stories) steered us through Acadia National Park’s stunning waters. The highlight? Trapping live lobsters right from the ocean floor—watching them haul up the pots was like a mini National Geographic episode. It’s family-friendly (kids loved the “lobster school” lesson), affordable (around $50/adult), and runs rain or shine—ours was a perfect sunny day, but the covered cabin kept us comfy. Pro tip: Book ahead for peak summer slots. Five stars for the mix of education, eats, and epic scenery. Can’t wait to go back!

Add this as one of the ‘must do’ items on your itinerary to Bar Harbor. Our family had a blast and absolutely loved this tour. Not only do you learn more about lobstering, you also get a tour of the bay, a lesson on local history and information on local marine life. Both our tour guide and captain were fabulous. This trip is appropriate for any age.

This boat tour exceeded my expectations! We were looking for an activity to do the morning of our elopement in Acadia national Park and this 2 hour boat tour perfectly fit the bill! We saw seals, a lighthouse, and several lobster and crabs. We learned so much about the industry of lobster fishing which was so interesting. Our guides were so funny. Highly recommend!

Interactive and really great trip for our mixed aged group (65, 69, 39, 9, 7). Chris was a lovely guide and answered all our questions. Tony was a great captain and very kind to all the kids on the boat. We lucked out and pulled in multiple lobsters (including a female with eggs)& a crab and saw lion's mane jellyfish, seals, & porpoises, and the views of the coast from the boat are beautiful. Definitely recommend the trip for anyone wanting to learn a bit more about the lobster industry & get out on the water.

We had an awesome experience on our boat tour! Galen did an excellent job keeping everyone entertained while teaching us all about the lobster industry as well as the other wildlife in Bar Harbor. The captain was friendly and entertaining as well. We loved it!

My husband, 12 yr old son, SIL and myself went on a trip yesterday. We had Emily as our tour guide and I can’t remember the captains name.we had such a good time. They allowed my son to band the lobster and even drive the boat. Emily was super friendly and I would highly recommend your tour company!

This was a great experience! Our narrator Linda and Captain Tony taught us so much about lobstering and the entire Bar Harbor ecosystem. We got to see several lobsters and crabs that Captain Tony pulled up in his traps. Highly recommended activity for all ages!
