Luxury Camden Sailing Experience on Penobscot Bay

Set sail on the jewel of the Maine coast — Penobscot Bay — aboard a classic schooner from Camden, just up the road from Rockland. This intimate, small-group sail delivers postcard vistas of island-dotted waters, forested headlands, and the legendary Maine sky.

What to expect

Board a beautifully maintained classic schooner and cast off into the archipelago of Penobscot Bay, where seals haul out on ledges and osprey circle overhead. Your captain narrates the maritime history of this legendary sailing ground while crew attend to your every comfort. The pace is unhurried — there is time to sit at the bow, feel the salt spray, and simply absorb one of the most beautiful stretches of the American coast. Camden's picturesque harbor makes for a stunning departure and return.
