After approximately 1 hour of sailing, you arrive at Monroe Island, a 250‑acre island preserve managed by the Maine Coast Heritage Trust. You’ll be shuttled ashore via a 12‑ft tender. Guests have 2–2.5 hours to hike, beachcomb, or explore island trails passing through rocky beaches, fern‑filled forests, and granite bluffs.

Penobscot Bay
We will sail into Penobscot Bay and see some of Monroe’s rocky granite bluffs while we enjoy our lunch and then have a brisk sail back into Rockland on the afternoon breeze. Guests will have the opportunity to help raise the sails and steer the boat as we harness the breeze, shut down the engine and hopefully catch a little refreshing salt spray. We will return to Middle Pier in Rockland and disembark at 3pm.
