Isle au Haut Boat Services in Stonington, Hancock County, United States | Boating

Isle au Haut Boat Services operates year-round passenger, mail and freight service between Stonington and Isle au Haut, and seasonal service to the Duck Harbor Landing of Acadia National Park in Maine, United States.
At Isle au Haut Boat Services we are happy to serve our seasonal residents and daily visitors during the busy summer months, but our mission is also to support Isle au Haut's year-round community during the quiet winter months. For an unbridged island, reliable daily service is a fundamental part of building a sustainable community. Many of the things we take for granted, daily attendance for high school students, visits to the doctor, visits from friends and family, delivery of parcels - take on new dimensions when the ferry service is the only link from island to mainland.
Cruise with Isle au Haut Boat Services in Stonington, Maine, and learn about Maine's lobster fishery as our crews haul our string of lobster traps. See what creatures of the ocean floor are in the daily catch. The Captain will explain the techniques and a few of the secrets of the men and women who earn their livings on the waters of coastal Maine. Sorry, we can't keep or sell the catch,everything goes back into the water.
The Captain will narrate the local history and folklore of the islands, granite quarries and lighthouses. Weather permitting, we'll visit islands and ledges where seals, birds and working and pleasure vessels present photo opportunities on every side.
Cruises last for about one hour and fifteen minutes, leaving from the Isle au Haut Ferry Company on Sea Breeze Avenue in Stonington in Maine.
