If you're traveling with children, this might be a good stop to learn all about Maine's lobsters. Tours are available and children under four (4) get in free.

Fantastic outing with the kids> Learn all about the life cycle of lobster. (Outdoors most of the time with some walking)

This very-unique "museum" contains a lobster hatchery and an "ocean-creature petting area" plus a lobster boat with a lobster-story-telling lobster man. Very fun and informative! Learn all about the life of lobsters up close and personal!
