On short notice we were able to book a tour for 6 of us including my 3 and 5 year old granddaughters. It was a wonderful trip that held their interest. We saw seals, a bald eagle and a lobster trap full of lobsters and hermit crabs. Captain Robertson was a perfect host.
Our family (6 people: ages 7-69) thoroughly enjoyed a great morning with Robertson Sea Tours! Captain Jamie Robertson led us on a fascinating tour of some coastal islands as we made our way out to observe and photograph seals basking on rocks, puffins swimming, diving, fishing and zipping by the boat to check us out. We learned a great deal about lobsters and lobster harvesting, and we were even able to check out a few lobster traps on our way back in to the dock! Each of us picked Robertson Sea Tours as a highlight of our Maine vacation!
Captain Jamie and his first mate son were extraordinary hosts and guides on our whale watch! It was such a pleasant and beautiful ride for the 5 of us aboard the Kandi Leigh! Whales, seals, porpoises and birds were plentiful, awe inspiring and phenomenal! Such a gift to share in God's beautiful creation!
We took the puffin boat cruise. It was great, and Jamie Robertson was not only pleasant and kind, he is very competent and enthusiastic guide. We have of to wait because it was foggy and no pressure on behalf of Jamie. We would recommend this trip.
We went on the puffin boat cruise, and learned so much. It was great and Jamie Robertson is a very competent and enthusiastic guide. He is careful and accommodates travelers of all ages. I will go again!
It was my first whale watch and it was nothing short of amazing! We saw whales, puffins, and dolphins. Our guild was knowledgeable and we had an awesome time. We stopped at Flinn Island and had lobsters and blueberry pie! I recommend this tour to anyone from Maine or away. It is an amazing experience for kids and adults of all ages!
We spent two weeks in the Milbridge area, fantastic! We contacted Robertson Sea Tours to schedule an outing late in our second week. We coordinated with Kandi and she was very timely in contacting us to schedule the trip to see marine animals and puffins. The day before the trip we received a call from Captain Robertson and he told us the fog was so thick that he didn't think we would be able to make the trip. He was happy to call us the following morning at a time that we chose so that we could go out early in the morning. Given the forecast for more fog, we chose to cancel.He and Kandi were very apologetic and kind. We very much appreciated their honesty and advanced notice so that we could plan other activities as necessary. In checking around the Milbridge area, everyone we spoke to about Robertson Sea Tours had nothing but great things to say about them as people. My recommendation is that you call them prior to your arrival in the area so you have the whole length of your stay to adjust to weather conditions, as they will work with you as much as possible.We will simply have to be more timely in our reservation next year, and book our trip the first week!James and Michelle NicholsHarpers Ferry, WV
Capt. Jim was our tour leader and ship captain on recent Puffin cruise. It was a beautiful day; the water was smooth; the scenery was spectacular; and we saw and learned a lot about the area and wildlife. It could not have been more enjoyable.
This is our 2nd charter with Captain Robertson and it was even better than the first! Our first trip was a 2-hour lobstering cruise in 2012. Our kids enjoyed it so much they wanted to do it again on our trip this week. We bumped up to 4 hours and Jamie made sure the boys learned more about lobstering, the environment and all the other sea creatures that tend to come up in the traps with the lobsters. Really great memories were made on both our cruises - thanks Captain!
We had an amazing time with you and your lovely family. Kandi is a doll and the boys, well wow awesome lil dudes! Thank you so much for not only teaching Robbie how to lobster fish and making him a true downeastah but to show him that hard work can be fun too! Getting him to step out of his comfort zone, keeping him interested and a part of the whole process, taking your time, knowledge and patience to bring an ultimate smile to my little mans face. You started something huge, he cannot stop talking about his experience.. explaining it to his buddies cracks me up! Lol wearing his t-shirt all the time... which we'll probably need a new one haha and every so often looking at that pamphlet. Possible fishing future perhaps?? :) I feel another trip with y'all will be in the very near future... Cant wait! Thanks again JamieShawna and Robbie Cain
