Set sail on a 3-hour journey through Penobscot Bay, where participants dive into the coastal ecology of Maine with a science educator from Herring Gut Coastal Science Centre. The adventure begins in Rockland Harbour and takes you past iconic landmarks like Owl’s Head Lighthouse, exploring diverse marine environments.
