Private Charters & Group Tours
Whether you're a tour director, a school teacher, or the father of the bride, Casco Bay Lines is the way for your group to go! For transportation to an island or a scenic cruise around the bay, you have a choice: you can go by our regularly scheduled service, or charter one of our boats for your own private ride.
Private Charters
Weddings, birthday parties, company outings, and all kinds of special events are always more fun on a boat! We can accommodate groups of 25 to 275 on a private cruise around the bay or transportation to an island, with plenty of room for food and entertainment on the way.
Casco Bay Lines provides the boat and crew and, if you like, complete bar service; you book a caterer or bring your own food, and hire a band or DJ if you'd like to do a little dancing! See our list of caterers and entertainers who have made past charters memorable.
For a real Down East experience, combine a private charter with a Casco Bay Lines Lobster Bake on Peaks Island and get 4 hours for the price of 3! See our Lobster Bakes page for more information.

Group Tours
If you have a group of 20 or more going on our regularly scheduled service, please contact us to book your group. Although we do not accept reservations and cannot guarantee you passage, by booking your group we can avoid overcrowding the boat and ensure that we have enough crew members on board. If you have a very large group (50 or more), a private charter may be more comfortable and cost effective for you. The Sales Director will be happy to help you make the best choice.
Discounted group rates are available for groups of 20 or more on cruise tickets only. Please note that group rates are not available for round trip tickets to an island. Your group must be booked to qualify for group rates. See our Scenic Cruises page for more information about cruises.
Contact our Sales Director, Caity Gildart, at (207) 774-7871 ext. 105 or e-mail caityb@cascobaylines.com to book your group today!
