tour. The kids had ball learning about the area, the sea and its critters. Tthe best part was the touch tank that they have. Diver Ed goes in the water with a camera so all passengers are able to see what he is seeing below the boat. He collects critters that are bagged and taken up to be placed in... More

We love Diver Ed and Captain Evil! Every year we take, atleast, two trips with friends and family. Diver Ed's trips are a must when guests come to visit us every summer here in Bar Harbor. More

We had old friends come in to town and this was THE ONE thing we decided we'd do with them. We went out on an afternoon tour and Diver Ed and Captain Evil were awesome- hilarious, knowledgeable and also respectful of shy and bashful kids who did not want to kiss sea cucumbers (even if Diver Ed did!). We came... More

I've been out on Diver Ed's boat several times now,and I recommend the trip to everyone! My son, who was 4 when I first took him out, and 6 when Iast took him out (this summer) loved every minute of the trip, and so did my husband and I! Each time it's different, based on what Diver Ed finds under... More

This trip is delightful for anyone travelling with young kids! My boyfriend and I took both my godchildren (ages 2 and 5), and Diver Ed kept them entertained for the whole 2 hour tour!!!! Between pulling animals up for a touch tank, an entertaining demonstration of the equipment necessary for diving, and adventures with mini-Ed, my godchildren talked about this... More

Diver Ed cancelled my trip because there weren't enough people to run the boat. This was a major disappointment to my family since we were looking forward to this boat cruise during our whole vacation and unable to reschedule. I am not impressed and would not recommend Diver Ed to anyone. More
