Discover Portland Maine and the shores of Casco Bay by bicycle! Join us for the 5 lighthouse bicycle tour of Portland, Maine featuring the Maine coast, lighthouses, and Portland’s history. We have made some modifications to the 5 Lighthouse tour in response to COVID-19. We have modified the tour to allow us not to have guests in our vehicles. As a result of this change, guests will begin biking from the Ocean Gateway and return to the Ocean Gateway by bicycle.  Groups will generally see only 4 lighthouses (Bug Light, Spring Point, Portland Head Light, and Ram Island Ledge). Lunch will be provided by the award-winning "Bite into Maine" Food Truck

There's something absolutely magical about traditionally-rigged wooden sailing vessels. Perhaps it's the epiphany that centuries-old technology can still be perfectly in harmony with our modern world. Or perhaps it's something else. Either way, we know you will fall under HESPER's spell the moment she sets sail. 2 hours will let you escape the hustle of the city and Portland Harbor, but still allow time for other activities. See lighthouses, historic stone fortresses, and the beauty of Casco Bay's islands. Relax on deck, or try your hand (with the help of our crew) at handling the rigging and learning how HESPER harnesses the wind. Book ONE TICKET for a group of up to 6.
