| This is our fourth year going on Diver Ed. It's the first thing our son asks to do each year during our Maine vacation. Diver Ed is very entertaining for both adults and children - he's quite a funny guy!! At the same time, lots of learning about ocean wildlife and conservation but in a fun way. Highly recommended! | ||||||

This should sum it up...............

One of the single best "must do" things on MDI

| I entered into this whole Diver Ed thing with a good amount of skepticism but I figured what the heck - my sister in law was visiting with her kids so I took a couple of my kids and off we went. I should add that I am a professional biologist who is here each summer working at one of the biolabs on MDI. So, there I was, feeling like a know-it-all just waiting for Ed and crew to slip up or saying something stupid or without much real educational content. Wow, was I ever wrong! Ed and crew (including the dogs) are the real deal. You could just see the excitement and smiles build on each kid (and adults face) as the clock ticked by - by the end we were all beaming and I was ready to go out again that afternoon! Great commentary on the way around the harbor (other boats, seals, eagles, history lessons, biographies - awesome) and the idea of this "dive-in theatre" is absolutely brilliant. The highlight is Diver Ed himself - he brings the place alive and just connects with the kids as well or better than anyone I've ever seen. And the content was informative, engaging and just a whole lot of fun. Every school should have a Diver Ed to teach our kids about our world and the precious life that swarms on land and in the sea. The way he described the life history of things like sea stars, lobsters, sea cucumbers and a lot of other stuff was wonderful. I don't know how you work yourself up to putting on a dry suit and jumping in twice a day with "Mini-Ed" and still manage this level of energy. Hats off to Ed and crew - you guys are the best. My simple advice - just go and do this folks....!! And Ed - if you are ever looking for more crew, please keep me in mind! | ||||||

| This was an enjoyable and funny program and trip that was fun and educational. The way Diver Ed and Captain Evil keep the information rolling and the hands on activities that included all were great. My niece and nephew couldn't stop talking about what they had seen during dinner. I would recommend this to all. | ||||||

| My wife, 10 year old daughter and I were repeat visitors to Diver Ed's trip. This trip is highly entertaining and educational. Diver Ed gets the kids actively involved in the process of learning about the animals that live in the sea. After his dive Ed (along with dive partner "Mini-Ed") brings a collection bag of animals to the boat for everyone to touch and interact with. He talks about each animal, explaining its life cycle, eating habits and other interesting facts. Among the animals that he brought aboard were sea stars, urchins, crabs, lobsters and sea cucumbers. Ed's presentation is hilarious as well as informative. I can't recommend his trip highly enough! Ray Hooton Clarkston, MI | ||||||

| I have been to Bar Harbor for many years and try to come each year. Being from the midwest area I miss the ocean and love Maine...but this trip my granddaughter accompanied me and I thought this would be fun for her.....she loves all creatures. But was I ever surprised when I found myself glued to the screen as Diver Ed explored the ocean floor with his camera......WOW it was thrilling to see the lobster move with such speed...and backwards......and I learned so much... Oh by the way.......my granddaughter had a smile on her face the entire time......Diver Ed is a hoot and his dogs are gems........I would highly recommend this adventure for young and old......alike...........don't miss it! Both Diver Ed and his wife make the trip such a delight......really worth the money...... | ||||||

| My sister and I and our 4 kids went on Diver Ed's tour recently and we loved every minute ! We actually took the longer version of the trip with the park ranger. We saw so many things. We were lucky enough to watch an eagle diving for fish. The park ranger was good and very informative but we LOVED Diver Ed and Mini Ed. He and Captain Evil were very friendly and good with the kids. Diver Ed showed us many things that we hadn't seen before (the biggest sea cucumber ever!) and let the kids hold everything and even put the starfish on their heads. He was very funny and fun to watch and listen to. The kids still talk about the trip every day and say it is one of their favorite things that we did while on vacation. We can't recommend this trip enough. If you only get to do one boat trip while in Maine make this the one. You won't regret it. | ||||||

Kid focused boat ride opportunity

| 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. | ||||||
