| Diver Ed is a wonderful family activity in Bar Harbor. Ed himself is funny and the kids on board loved him. The kids get to hold, touch, or even kiss some of the creatures Ed brings up from the sea floor, and it doesn't hurt that you learn a thing or two about sea life in the process. I highly recommend this excursion if you have young children. |

| I took my two nieces on this trip two years ago and they never forgot it. When visiting with us this week, the first thing they asked about was if they could go on the Diver Ed trip again. They loved it this time as if it were their first trip. Diver Ed does a great job of managing excited children and including all who want to be included. He has a great amount of energy to keep both children and adults interested for the entire trip and takes time to interact with children and adults individually, asking where folks are from and including them in the presentations. This is a trip that should be a priority for all visiting and local families. For our extended family, this was a memorable trip, and the memories of the events are shared, nearly every time we gather. |

| We have come to Bar Harbor for the past 3 years during our summer vacation but this was the first time cruising with Diver Ed. My children most emphatically said that next year we definitely, with out a doubt, will go with the crew of the Starfish Enterprise on another adventure again; no ifs ands or butts of sea cucumbers about it.
After kissing many of the sea creatures Diver Ed stuck into their faces, my concern is that they will kiss anything now! Thanks Diver Ed! |

| the kids 5 & 7 really enjoyed the activity - the technology really enables interaction between us on the boat and the diver - and it was great to see the animals both in the their natural environment and later on the boat. everyone learned something. |

| Diver Ed, and his wife are just awesome. It was so wonderful to see our kids so excited, and having so much fun. We have been to Bar Harbor many times before, but this is our first Diver Ed experience, and it will now become a permanent part of every vacation in Maine for us! One thing we strongly advise is to bring at least one jacket, if not two. It gets very chilly out on the water even when it is very hot in land. Thanks Diver Ed for a great experience!!! |

| One of our family's favorite vacation traditions is Diver Ed. We usually go on an twilight cruise to enjoy the sunset while the kids laugh and giggle while touching and learning about sea creatures, including lobsters, scallops, sea stars and more. Diver Ed is funny and a great teacher. |

| We had the pleasure of taking a trip with Diver Ed last week. In our group we had 4 adults and 5 children. The children ranged in age from 2-10. Everyone had a great time. At first we weren't sure if it was going to be too "young" for the 10 year old in our group but he had a great time as well.
Diver Ed's humor and energy made for a highly entertaining (and informative) trip. This is a MUST for anyone traveling to Bar Harbor who has kids. My kids are still talking about it. |

| I took my son to see Diver Ed four years ago. He was only 3 1/2 at the time. Ever since then he has been asking me when he can go back. We finally had a chance to go again this year, and brought some friends with us this time. The boys had a great time, and are already asking to go again! We won't wait for 4 years again! |
