Best nature cruise on the coast of Maine
Fri, Sep 4  9:30 AM ilanah Male 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
To paraphrase the bandit in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre," "we don't need no stinkin' children" to have a ball at Diver Ed's Dive-In Theater. Ed is a perfect blend of John Belushi and Jacques Cousteau (with a dash of Soupy Sales) and entertains and educates 10 years olds and AARP veterans in equal measure. It's easy to underestimate the importance of this kind of joyous instruction, but someday, somewhere, some kid who's been on Starfish Enterprise will find that he has a personal interest in acting on some information about a danger to sea life because of the fun that he had that morning in Frenchman's Bay. And the world will be a little better place. Diver Ed's interaction with the kids on his boat is at a perfect pitch. It's loud, sometimes scary ("Here, kiss this sea cucumber!"), it's funny, and it's always full of the love he has for what he's doing. If you're within a hundred miles of Bar Harbor, if you have children, grandchildren, or no children, treat yourself to a couple of hours at Diver Ed's Dive-in Theater.

Diver Ed is better than Neptune.

I thought being out on a boat, for two hours, with my three year old daughter would be challenging. But Diver Ed kept all the children engaged and enthused. I think the target audience is from 4 to 9 years of age. We had a great time.

Great trip, but a bit expensive
Tue, Sep 23, 08   1:30 PM hsbhwinfrey Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The trip was terrific, the content awesome, and the staff and crew fantastic. Myself, my husband, our 7 yr old and 4 yr old all sat open mouthed in wonder as Diver Ed toured the bottom of the ocean with their camera. Meeting the animals up close was amazing and very amusing with Diver Ed's antics - we all learned something new. And the ranger from Acadia was especially knowledgeable on everything - the history, the animals, the area, the sea. I would definitely recommend this trip, however the cost was more than we would normally have spent on a trip of this sort, we even had to pay for our infant, but for us it was worth it.

Best experience ever!
Wed, Aug 6, 08   1:30 PM hsauer Female 60-69 Combination Family With Children
What a great idea! We took our 5 year old grandson and we had as much fun as he did. Diver Ed was so great. The whole trip was well organized, presented with great enthusiasm, entertaining, educational and just plain fun. I would highly recommend this excursion to people of all ages. We definitely will participate next summer with our granddaughter too. By the way, why don't you make a copy and sell the little divers that are part of the program -- I think the kids would love to have this as a souvenier of their experience.

Terrific excursion - our whole family loved it!
Mon, Jul 28, 08   9:30 AM hmchome Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Our family loved this trip! The whole thing was very fun and educational at the same time. Diver Ed was terrific! My son keeps looking for a Mini Ed of his own! Even our 2 year old was interested in watching the underwater video. Both kids loved picking up and touching all the sea creatures! We would definitely go on this trip again when we return to Maine.

This is a very informative and funny trip. Diver Ed is like John Balushi and/or John Candy. We we informed, entertained, and would do it again in a heart beat.

AWESOME!!
Wed, Aug 12  9:30 AM hirschtodd Male 30-39 Unspecified Family With Children
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!!!

A great hands-on experience!

I enjoyed Diver Ed's sense of humor and ease with kids and adults alike, and Edna's natural science knowledge gave the experience context. Our kids (2 1/2 and 4) really enjoyed seeing Diver Ed as he collected specimens and then getting to hold them and explore them up close. Ed and the crew's sense of humor, enthusiasm, and knowledge tied it all together into a fun trip for all!

A fabulous and fun adventure...a must do!
Wed, Jul 9, 08   9:30 AM hillriggle Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I can't say enough about this trip. Ed and his crew and just wonderful and clearly have a passion for what they do, which make their theatre a true pleasure to experience. This is a great way for kids to get up close with the sealife in the harbor, and be thouroughly entertained at the same time!! And beyond that...it is just as much fun for the adults. I highly rec this to anyone visiting the acadia area!

You've never seen a show like this before!
Wed, Aug 26  1:30 PM heytodd1 Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Diver Ed and his wife, Captain Evil, educated us and kept us entertained during the entire boating and diving excursion. My three kids, ages 7,8, and 9, have all cited Diver Ed as the best part of our week-long vacation in Maine. They especially liked mini-Diver Ed, who is just barely shorter than the real Diver Ed. At least that is true according to Captain Evil. Overall, undertaking this adventure is highly recommended.

Perfect activity for families with children
Sat, Jul 5, 08   1:30 PM herbsims Male 60-69 Combination Family With Children
As a family with grown children we enjoyed the trip just as much as those with smaller children. It was very impressive to see how Diver Ed and Capt. Evil worked with the children and at the same time involved the adults. Overall it was an educational and entertaining experience well worth our time. We enjoyed it very much and have recommended it to other visitors to BH.
