Diver Ed is a blast for kids!
Wed, Aug 5  1:30 PM bethfalk Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
We did this with our kids and our nieces (kids ranging in age from 3 to 8) and they all loved it. Diver Ed is funny, full of energy and really, really nice - he's goofy and the kids loved him. They also learned a lot about the local sea creatures, and Ed held their attention the whole time (the 3 year old got a little antsy, but the older kids loved every minute). Everyone I know who's done the trip says good things about it. It's absolutely worth checking out if you're in Acadia with younger kids.

Diver Ed - LOVED IT!
Tue, Aug 4  5:30 PM rubylu Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Diver Ed and Evil Edna Dive in Theater was a wonderful time for the whole family! We were travelling with another family and I am sure it was the highlight of our vacation for our three boys. Eddie is wonderful with the kids and really knows his stuff when he is under the very cold water. It was fun for us to watch the interaction with the kids. There was truly wonder in their eyes when Eddie is under the water searching for creatures. Then when he re-emerges with lobster, sea stars, scallops, and sea cucumbers, well they just went crazy! I highly recommend the Diver Ed tour. I’ve vacationed in Maine many times, but never have I gotten such a hands on experience of the natural environment that makes up the wonder and beauty of the area. It was chilly on the water - so bring jackets and socks!

we went on a diver ed trip two years ago upon a friend's recommendation.. we loved it so much we've been telling others it's a MUST DO if traveling to Bar Harbor.. we were very happy the weather was agreeable this year to take the kids again.. and we all enjoyed it just as much as our first time.... it's the perfect amount of time for the kids..... to us waaaay better than a whale watch, with no guarantees of seeing sea life.... and pssst parents the kids don't even realize they are being educated!!!!!!

My boys laughed until they cried! Diver Ed was able to make the trip educational and very entertaining at the same time. We enjoyed his humor.

Loved it!
Sun, Aug 2  1:30 PM lindenfeld Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
Wow! That was just a fantastic trip. We loved every minute of it, kids and adults alike. Diver Ed is hilarious. He reminds me of John Belushi. I'm an educator, and I care so much about getting kids engaged in science and helping them to value the environment. What you are doing on these trips is phenomenal. The kids are learning by doing and laughing. My 6 yr old son remembered so many details as did my 4 year old niece. You guys are all terrific, and we can't wait to come back. Keep up the great work. I'm truly impressed. Laura Lindenfeld

We completely enjoyed the adventure! We had two son's a 10 and a 20 year old who had birthdays that same day. They had a great time. Lots of educational info but lots of laughs too. Evil and Ed are a great combo of comedy! Will do it again next time we go to Bar Harbor!

Brilliant!

"Diver Ed" brilliantly blends teaching and silly entertainment that captures the attention of guests of all ages. My husband and I attended his show many years ago on his original boat. We agreed at that time that when we had kids, we would definitely be back. This trip was the first for our 2 and 3.5 year old children. Both kids were captivated, participated and had a blast (as were the adults in our group).

Diver Ed and Captain Evil provide an entertaining as well as educational view of the sea life found on the bottom of Frenchman's Bay. It's a fun trip for both children and adults. We've taken the trip twice and can't wait to do it again.

The Best Adventure for Kids in Bar Harbor
Fri, Jul 31  9:30 AM cbianchi Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Diver Ed is just great with kids. Both he and his wife, Captain Evil, couldn't be nicer. The boat is smaller than the big whale watching boats (at max it can probably take 50 people) which makes for a much more personal experience that kids will love. I have two daughters, 4 and 5, and they both had a great time touching the animals that Diver Ed collects from the bottom of the sea -- he only brings aboard kid-friendly animals -- sea cucumbers, scallops, hermit crabs, sand dollars -- even a small lobster that was maybe 6 inches, small enough for a small child to touch and hold. The animals are all released at the end. Diver Ed has a wonderful sense of humor and just had us all laughing the whole trip. And, you have to love the vessel and the man's experience -- the boat, the Starfish Enterprise, is brand new and just beautiful -- even the head was nicer than most of the restrooms in town. And, Ed is the former harbor master and dives for scallops in the winter -- he knows these waters very well. My husband and I were first concerned how the trip would go because we had a rather obnoxious tourist on board -- just loud, pushy, and inconsiderate. Without making anyone uncomfortable, he was able to put this person in their place with humour and the trip was very enjoyable as a result -- that's a professional for you! The only, and I mean only, difficult part was the parking and finding the meeting location. If they could have given us a few landmarks to follow (like meet infront of the whale skull) it would have been easier. Overall, two thumbs up for parents and expecially kids between 4 and 14.

great for older kids

My daughter (11) loved this trip! We did too! Diver Ed is so much fun, he and his wife are so knowledgeable on marine life, we all learned a lot! I don't think my active 3 year old could have handled a 3 hour tour, but think it would be great for kids 5 and up! Looking forward to taking my niece with us next year!

A fantastic educational fun trip 4 all ages!!!!!!!
Wed, Jul 29  5:30 PM kathleenhat Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
This was an experience that we'll never forget! From the moment we boarded the dock to the moment we got off the boat, we were highly entertained AND educated by DIver Ed and his wife, Captain Evil. They not only entertained our children, ages 14, 13 and 11, but me and my husband as well. My 13 and 14 y/o boys were belly laughing! Now that's a feat in itself considering they wanted to listen to their Ipods and play PSP instead. My daughter has not stopped talking about Diver Ed and mini Diver ED (You need to take the trip to understand). One minute we were just cruising out and the next the boat was on a goose chase to spot the marine life a customer spotted! Diver Ed suited up in his diving gear and had the kids push him overboard. Within minutes he was 100 feet below us with a video camera showing us everything that he could see while his wife narrrarated on board. He was able to catch lobsters, several star fish, hermit crabs, sea cucumbers, and sea urchins and bring them up on board. Of course he did have a helper...you have to take the trip to understand. My husband and I laughed the entire time he was under! All of the sea life was brought up onboard for viewing, touching, holding, squirting and learning. Wear your warm and old clothes! We took this tour at the beginning of our vacation in Bar Harbour and my daughter was able to participate and answer questions about what she learned here on another tour we did in southern Maine at the end of our vacation!! Now that's education at it's best! Thanks for the memories and a great time!!

A GREAT Time
Wed, Jul 29  5:30 PM tlhdoc Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The Dive In Theater is a great Experience. We saw much more on Diver Ed's boat the Starfish Enterprise than we did on the whale watching boat. The Dive In Theater was the most enjoyable activity we did on our trip to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor, Maine.
