| This trip with Diver Ed and crew was GREAT. We had three generations on the trip and everyone had a ball. Diver Ed is exceptional with the kids (whether they are young or young of heart). I know it is something my grandkids will remember and talk about for years. I would highly recommend it to anyone. We would go again. My grandson has Aspergers (on the Autism Spectrum) and he felt a part of the trip and had a great time, his mother is a Speech Pathologist and she was very pleased with how DiverEd interacted with her son and all the kids onboard.

| Our family had seen Diver Ed's advertisements on the MPBN annual auction but never really considered going on an excursion until several people in Bar Harbor recommended it. My wife, 3 year-old daughter and I decided to give it a try and had an EXCELLENT time! Diver Ed and Captain Evil were both very knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. They (and their dogs) held the attention of both adults and children of all ages (I believe our daughter was the youngest on our trip).
Two weeks later my daughter is still talking about Diver Ed, holding a sea star, and Daddy kissing a crab! Highly recommended as your family will go on a harbor cruise, learn about local wildlife and sea creatures, and get an adventure/comedy show all in one event. We'll definitely be back! |

| I would highly recommend you skip other scenic boat rides and take your family and friends on a trip with Diver Ed. He and his wife along with their 2 dogs take you on an adventure both above and below the ocean. They manage to teach everyone about ocean life and bring it to life when you get to handle the sea life he brings to the surface after you see them on his camera in the ocean. Our group was a mixed bag of kids from ages 7-19 and adults in their late 40s and 50s and we all had a great time. We look forward to going out with Diver Ed the next time we visit Bar Harbor.
We learned about Diver Ed from a local and would have missed this wonderful activity if not for her so I would like to recommend that they advertise more. No one
should go to Bar harbor and miss this!!! |

| We participated on an evening cruise in August. Diver Ed is hysterically funny, and he is great with children. Mini Ed, the Newfoundlands, touching the "catch", and the spectacular sunset were just a few of the highlights. Don't miss it! |

| A terrific tour of underwater Maine. Between "mini-Ed" fighting a lobster or kissing a starfish, we all loved this tour. A chance to learn about the marine environment and have some good laughs along the way. |

| Our group consisted of myself, my husband, our two boys (8 and 10 yrs old), and my husband's sister and her husband. Diver Ed made sure to introduce himself to every person on the boat - kids and adults. He had fun with the kids, made the adults laugh, too. He and Captain Evil were sure to include educational information about the marine life we saw. We had previously attended a National Park led Beyond the Beach and had learned many of the things Diver Ed and Captain Evil shared with us.
We struggled with choosing which boating option to take - whale watch, schooner ship, etc - and all of us agreed we made the right choice! |

| Diver Ed and his crew made every effort to provise a great experience for all of the children on the trip. It felt like your own personal boat ride with all of the attention that the crew gave to the kids and the families. A must do adventure if traveling to Maine with children. |
