| Diver Ed is fantastic with the kids, and very entertaining with the adults too. The experience is very interactive, watching Diver Ed roam under water with his HD video camera on a big HD projection screen. He brings up a collection of animals, and the kids get to hold the animals and learn about them at the same time. Highly recommended for families and those curious what's under Frenchman's Bay!! |

| We just had a great time from beginning to end!! It was an enjoyable experience and we look so forward to coming back next year, my only concern is I want to bring my parents and they cannot make that walk to the boat. Diver Ed was funny, entertaining and just fun to watch. We hope to see him with his own show someday. You can tell he loves kids and his job and that really makes a difference!! What a great experience, thank you so much!!!! Also very educational as well, just a well rounded fun adventure!! |

| Diver Ed is wonderful. He's very enthusiastic about ocean life and gears the program, which is very interactive, toward the kids in the audience. I'd highly recommend this as a family activity. |

| This was my family's second trip. First when my daughter was two and again now when she is five. She loved it both times (and so did I!!) Diver Ed has an amazing repore with children and the entire experience is fun and educational. With all the ridiculous amount of money spent in bar harbor this is by FAR the BEST money we spend!!! |

| Diver Ed and Captain Evil make learning fun. My two children 3 & 7 could not stop talking about how much they loved the trip and neither can we. |

| One of the best investments of our summer vacation dollars this season. Our 9:30 Diver Ed Cruise mastered the fine balance between entertainment and education. We laughed and learned and were sad when it was over. The working dynamics of Diver Ed, Capt. Evil and Little Ed are just right. Little Ed's love affair for all things briny, spiny, and slimey is a true testament to kids that all living things deserve love and respect. Thanks Diver Ed, Evil and Little Ed. It was a blast. |

| We've gone out on a Diver Ed trip every summer since it started 8 or 9 years ago. The new boat is really nice. We loved the Seal, but the new boat is more roomy, more stable, easier to get on and off, etc. Ed and Edna are wonderful as always.
Our kids loved this trip when they were 4 and 7 years old and they still love it at 13 and 16. And, my 76 year old mom laughs at Eddie's antics.
In my opinion, the trips without the park service naturalist are a bit more freewheeling and fun than the ones with. But it's been years since we've tried the park service naturalist version. |
