| 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! | ||||||

| 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 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. | ||||||

| We had looked up Diver Ed on the internet many sleeps ago ,and Ed and Edna(Captain Evil)exceeded our and our boys expectations!!The whole tour was a riot right from when we got onto the boat till we bumped back into the dock. I really like the feeling that we were with friends out for an afternoon tour and we weren't on a tight schedule.The boys(11 & 6)will be talking about this one for along time!!The boys loved sharing their experience with Levi and Halo!!

| 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. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| 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! | ||||||

| When I got on the boat there were several children and it was feared I'd not enjoy being with so many little ones. How wrong could one person be? Diver Ed and Captain Evil are so very knowledgeable.....and extremely entertaining!! Even at my age I learned things about the ocean and the creatures therein. I would recommend this excursion to anyone who would listen!!! Thanks for a great afternoon!! | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||

| 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. | ||||||
