Our family took the trip with the ranger, and we absolutely loved it! Not only did we see great sea animals, and learn fascinating facts about them, but we also saw seals, porpoises, and bald eagles. It was a great value and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the beautiful area of Acadia. Diver Ed and Captain Evil are a dynamic duo! |

My family and I had a wonderful time with Diver Ed. He was very entertaining and the trip was very informative. I will take the trip again when we return to the area. |

We saw lots of wildlife. The park rangers shared lots of interesting facts. Diver Ed was very entertaining. It was way cool that we could see what he brought up from below. I would recommend this trip for anyone who enjoys animals, especially families with children. |

Dive-in Theater was FANTASTIC!! I would highly recommend this to anyone in the Bar Harbor area! I was there with my 66 year old mother and she loved it. There were also young children there and they appeared to really be enjoying themselves as well. I am 29, so you can see that this is great for any age!
The people running this excursion were knowledgeable and entertaining. I've gone to different touch tanks, know a good amount about Maine wildlife and ocean life and I learned something new. Don't miss this great experience! This is one you'll remember and talk about! |

The rangers were very informative and knowledgeable and Diver Ed was great with making the dive entertaining to watch. He also interacted well with the kids allowing them to touch and even kiss the sea creatures he brought up. Fantastic day on the water. Saw a lot and learned a lot. |

My son and I were really looking forward to this expedition. While the boat ride was nice, and the tv was nice, the focus was on objects we could have picked up while wading at high tide. One of the attendants (low vision/blind) was painfully unable to speak professionally. Ed was amusing, but overall the tour was certainly NOT worth the money. Had you never seen anything from the sea, it might interest you. Otherwise, wade in the ocean. Disappointed. |

Great way to experience scuba diving without having to jump in the 42 degree water! Really enjoyed being able to see the ocean floor and having things pointed out to me. Mini Ed #132 was a scream! The kids really enjoyed being able to see and touch all of the creatures that Diver Ed brought to the surface. The experience was entertaining and informative. I would highly recommend the trip for folks of all ages! |
