The Full Lobster Fishing & VIP Lobster Pound Feast Experience
2.5 hours : All Ages : 2 Guests Minimum
What to Expect
🦞 What to Expect:
Climb aboard The Out & About and head out onto Belfast Bay for a hands-on experience right in the heart of Maine’s most iconic tradition — lobster fishing. This isn’t just a cruise, it’s a working waterfront experience, full of salty air, discovery, and real-deal moments on the water.
You’ll learn the tools and techniques of Maine lobster fishing as we make our way to the trap lines. Watch — and try for yourself — as traps are hauled from the water using the winch system, then gather round to see what’s inside. Expect lobsters, crabs, and maybe even a surprise catch or two.
Along the way, you’ll hear stories from the boat, local superstitions, and how the fishery is managed to keep it thriving for generations to come — giving you a deeper connection to what’s really happening out here.
And just when you think it couldn’t get better — we head ashore to Young's Lobster Pound for a proper Maine lobster feast. Fresh, simple, and exactly how it should be, it’s the perfect way to round out the experience.
Every trip is a little different. Whether it’s foggy, sunny, or breezy, the bay sets the tone — and that’s all part of it.
👨👩👧👦 Perfect for:
• Curious families and hands-on kids
• Adults who’ve always wanted to know how it’s really done
• Visitors looking for something authentic and local

• Anyone who loves lobster — or wants to earn it
