Park Ranger
Thu, Aug 7, 08   1:30 PM Greaves Female 50-59 Local Family Without Children
This is my second trip to Diver Ed. This year, considering the vast amount of children on board and their young ages, the Park Ranger was speaking way over their heads. I preferred it much better with the humor that Diver Ed provided. Great underwater camera. Much improved pictures!

Diver Ed Rocks!! If you have kids don't miss it.

This is the 2nd time we've gone out on Diver Ed's boat and our kids love it. Diver Ed, Captain Evil and Deckhand Dick are wonderful educators and entertainers. We go to Maine every summer and Diver Ed is always top our list. Our 4 and 6 year old boys love it -- we love it too. Pure joy.

Wonderful Boating Experience
Wed, Jun 11, 08   1:30 PM bmmorse Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
My husband and I chose to do this cruise based on the information in the Beaver Log (from Acadia). We did not know that we were in for such an enjoyable experience. Even though we do not have children we found Diver Ed to be an interesting and enthustatic host. He greeted each guest individually upon arrival, and paid special attention to all children on board. His two dogs were adroable, and his wife was extremely informative. Overall we would recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a fun time, and a hands on sea creature experience.

Perfect finish to a great vacation!

Diver Ed and Captain Evil (I think that is the name he used, I call her Captain Edna) were superb hosts, educators and entertainers. Our grandson is 9 and our granddaughter is 12, both sat on the edge of their seats the entire trip. Diver Ed interacts with the group while walking along the ocean floor with Mini Ed. As he discoveres the sea creatures he shares the various aspects of each one. He then places them in a safe bag to bring onboard for all to see and touch. They had the opportunity to hold sea cucumbers, scallops, crabs, lobsters, sea stars, sand dollars, star fish and even a sponge; many in various sizes. We not only learned of the living sea creatures but also the equipment required to allow Diver Ed to walk along the ocean bottom. The kids had great fun "helping" him into the water and expanding his water suit upon his return to the boat. We recommend any kid at heart to join Diver Ed and Captain Edna on the Starfish Enterprise for a trip you will not soon forget.

Excellent cruise for families
Tue, Oct 6  1:30 PM NJTraveler Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
My wife and I were looking for a cruise that our child would find interesting. The Dive-In Theater cruise fit the bill. Diver Ed and the Acadia National Park Ranger were friendly and entertaining. Our child loved watching the video being sent up to the boat by Diver Ed. She also enjoyed holding starfish, lobsters, crabs, snails, and a sea cucumber when Diver Ed came back to the surface. We HIGHLY recommend this cruise to anyone!

Surprisingly very very entertaining and educating
Tue, Sep 22  1:30 PM pennybb Male 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The trip was very interesting and educational. We brought our daughter and son in law out for an early 25th weddding aniversary and two of their four children, boys 6 and 13. All were very impressed and entertained and loved the chance to hold the creatures brought up by Diver Ed from the deep. His comments while collecting the specimans were also entertaining. This was our second time to Bar Harbor and will make it a point to take this tour again when we hopefully return in the next few years. Also enjoyed the information given by Ranger Tony. With any luck at all, next time it will not be so cold. Thanks again for a great afternoon. Don and Penny Schroeder from Iowa.....

A trip aboard the Starfish Enterprise was so much fun. Diver Ed is as interesting as the many varied sea creatures he brings to the surface for learning and laughs. We will go again!

An unusual educational fun time for any age
Fri, Sep 4  1:30 PM allenwon Male 50-59 Combination Family With Children
Super hero Diver Ed and his side kick Captain Evil provide an entertaining 2 hour ride combo dive in beautiful Bar Harbor Maine. The dynamic duo take you out to discover the area around Bar Harbor describing the various sea life you will encounter. Then the real fun starts once they drop anchor. Diver Ed dives down and video tapes the bottom of the bay describing what he sees while you watch it all happen live and dry on deck with Captain Evil's comments filling in the blanks. He then returns to the boat with bags of the various fauna found, puts them in tubs, talks about them then lets you and the kids handle them! How much better can it get? Diver Ed is careful to explain what dangers might be associated with the animals he's brought on deck but you see with what care he gives to each and every creature. After every one gets their fill Diver Ed then lets them all go back into the bay. I've done this trip 3 times and each time it has been different and no less entertaining. I highly recommend this outing to all!

Kid focused boat ride opportunity
Fri, Sep 4  1:30 PM mbmcquil Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Last year we went on a lobster boat ride with our 2 children, aged 2 & 4. My husband enjoyed it, but I spent most of the time trying to not have the kids be disruptive or fall over board. They were engaged for about 5 minutes. This year we went with Diver Ed. The focus was on the kids. They had a blast. The 5 year old said she loved pushing Diver Ed off the boat and the pictures we took show how much they enjoyed picking up sea stars, lobsters and crabs. I enjoyed myself much more and the kids did too. We all did plenty of laughing while learning a lot about sea creatures. To fully appreciate this trip your kids can't mind getting a little wet. If trying to get out on the water in Bar Harbor with young children, I highly recommend Diver Ed's dive-in theater.

Diver Ed and Evil Edna delivered with a highly entertaining show for both kids and adults. We learned a lot of fun facts about the sea creatures Diver Ed brought up. Watch out for spitting scallops!

A great, fun, informative trip for all ages. My 3 year old was thoroughly enthralled with all the "sea creatures" as was I and it was a beautiful day on the water...very relaxed group activity for a change!

Entertaining and Educational

Diver Ed and Captain Evil (wife Edna) kept us entertained and informed through the trip. The ranger on board was really a bonus; we can't imagine the trip without her, too. Our children, ages 10 and 14, enjoyed the trip and holding creatures from the sea.
