Short Description
Experience Maine aboard a beautiful 40′ sailboat and get a private tour of the restored Wood Island Lighthouse and Keepers House! Delight in the stories your captain and crew will share of the 8 fascinating islands of Saco Bay, the rich history of the Saco River and see the longest beach in Maine from the water. Disembark on Wood Island and travel the ½ mile wooden boardwalk from the boathouse to the lighthouse, as a lighthouse keeper would have done.
A tour guide from Friends of Wood Island Lighthouse (FOWIL) will lead your way on Wood Island and take you inside this spectacular Light Station. Ascend the 60 circular stairs of the lighthouse tower to the lantern room with its fabulous panoramic view. On a clear day you will see the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Explore the two story restored Light Keepers House with all its treasures and carefully researched period details.
Most people that book a 2 hour excursion tell us they wished they could sail longer. So why not start out with a half day sail! You will be able to see much more of Saco Bay for sure! Also you might want to consider getting off on an uninhabited island, going for a swim, sailing outside of Saco Bay or seeing the beautiful Saco River.
There is so much to see and experience, a half day is just what the doctor ordered! Lots of options with the large expanse of Old Orchard Beach, seeing Biddeford Pool, the 8 gorgeous islands of Saco Bay, 5 miles of the Saco River and uninhabited islands to explore!
