Entertainment & Activities
View Casco Bay Islands and the Portland skyline from a ferry ride! You don’t even need a destination. Our favorite is the Mailboat Run. It’s a three-hour ride around Casco Bay. You’ll see so many beautiful islands and get a real sense of the area. Pack drinks and snacks (and a sweatshirt!) and just cruise.
