Highly Entertaining & Educational!!!

The Dive-In Theater Cruise was one of the best parts of our vacation. The whole family was able to enjoy and participate in the cruise. Diver Ed brings the ocean floor to you for you to see. We were able to see and touch lobsters, several types of crabs, sea urchins, several varieties of sea stars, sand dollars, and a sea cucumber. We also saw seals and bald eagles on the way to the dive site. The crew even took the time to pick out a piece of plastic from the water so no harm would come to any sea creature. They truly have a love for the ocean and all animal life.

Very Cool
Tue, Sep 1  9:30 AM Lolisa Female 40-49 Local Family With Children
We are locals and had been interested in going on the boat with Ed for years and finally did last week. It was so much fun, great for both kids...Ed was silly and funny and non-intimidating enough for 4 year old, but wild and wacky so that my 8 year son thought he was really cool and was spouting sea creature facts all the next day. Now he wants to take diving lessons! Very unique way to get to know our island's unique ecosystem and learn a little about the sea and how many people make a living here in Maine.

Fantastic activity-loved by kids,enjoyed by adults

Diver Ed's cruise is essentially split into two segments - the underwater collection part, transmitted live to the boat with video and audio, and the "show and tell" segment, where he explains his findings to the group. The first part is where the theater comes in - he had the kids in stitches with his silly underwater commentary and mock encounters between the sea creatures and his little diver mascot/figurine, Mini-Ed. After he brings up the creatures, he and his assistant (Dr. Evil, actually quite nice) sort them into touch tanks and Diver Ed shows and talks about each one before allowing everyone to swarm the tanks. The show and tell part, while still quite funny, managed to impart a lot of information to the group. My family loved the cruise - definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Bar Harbor. The kids loved holding all the sea creatures, and Diver Ed's energy and enthusiasm were infectious A must-do in my book!

Wonderful fun, enthusiastic and charming leader

Diver Ed loves the ocean and wants the rest of the world to love it as much as he does. He has a unique, fun loving approach to life which he brings with him to the cruise. The kids love him and learn a lot. Adults also can let down their hair and let their inner child come out to learn to love the sea creatures Diver Ed finds. This is a memorable experience unlike any other nature cruise you will take. I am very glad we did this, it was one of the high points of our trip.

Diver Ed is a must-see!

My husband and I brought our 6-year old daughter on the Dive-In Theater with Diver Ed during our vacation to Bar Harbor in August of 2009. It was definitely a highlight of our vacation and one that I would highly recommend to anyone traveling to Bar Harbor with children (3 years old +). Diver Ed was hilarious and the entire program was interesting even for the adults! Kudos to his entire team for their must-see underwater tour.

Review of Crazy Ed's Boat Tour
Fri, Aug 28  9:30 AM KristenFox Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Great for families with children from 4-12 ish but can still be enjoyed by anyone. This tour helps you learn about ocean animals and see them up close. Crazy Ed dives under the water with a camera and shows you all the creatures that he sees. His humor may be "third grade boy humor" sometimes but he definitely brings smiles to everyone on the boat. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Entertaining and educational for children
Fri, Aug 28  9:30 AM jtungar Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
We made a reservation for Diver Ed primarily for our children. My wife and I enjoyed it, but it is definitely geared towards kids. Diver Ed is enthusiastic and entertaining, and made the kids laught a lot. Aside from being funny, it was definitely educational. All of us enjoyed watching the live video feed from underwater, and the kids really enjoyed holding the various sea creatures that Ed brought on the boat. Definitely a fun activity for families.

Perfect for kids
Thu, Aug 27  5:30 PM russmetzler Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
This was a great cruise for kids, and kept them engaged the whole time. The target age is about 5-9 years, but our 3 year old loved it and stayed tuned through the entire event. Kids got to touch all kinds of sea creatures. Diver Ed and Captain Evil were great with everyone. Beware the fart/poop jokes, but kids this age find them funny.

best thing we did all summer
Thu, Aug 27  1:30 PM rknadeau Female 30-39 Local Family With Children
I took my daugher, age 6, with a friend and her 2 children, ages 4 and 6 and we had a super tour. It may have been 3 + hours long but because we were so enthralled with everything we never once looked at the time. The kids were terrific because they were so interested in Diver Ed and his crew-including 2 dogs. The stories that were told were relatable and funny. The sights were amazing, we saw seals playing, porpoises swimming, a bald eagle in it's nest and so many other beautiful things among the islands. It's a parents dream to have your children learning things while having fun and without having them sitting inside a typical classroom. There is no better place on Earth than the Atlantic Ocean!

Diver Ed provides a hilarious, educational and beautiful trip that gets everyone involved and informed about all the sea creatures living in the waters around Bar Harbor. I would highly recommend this trip for families or groups with children.
