  • The ferry to Peak Island is really convenient and reasonably priced. Parking is a dream..lots of places available and right next to ferry pier. People who operate the ferry are experienced and...

  • We were traveling with our pup and looking for some pet friendly activities when we discovered this tour. We decided the Mail Boat sounded fun and unique and decided to take a little cruise on it...

  • Took the sunrise mail boat and would definitely recommend it. If you get there earlier than 4:50 am you have to wait for someone to open the ticket booth, so don’t leave if you don’t see anyone there. Boat ride was absolutely wonderful. I missed two sunset boats two weeks in a row because they were sold out and I am glad I did. The sunrise and the water was incredible.
  • A great way to experience Portland is to see it from the water. Round trip tickets are cheap for access to Peaks Island on a pedestrian and vehicle ferry. All seats have nice window views of the harbor and surrounding islands, including a historic fort. Buy your ticket for any ferry. They leave fifteen minutes after every hour, and the line that forms north of the building where you can see a whale mural.
