Hop on Damariscotta River Cruises’ boat to tour the Damariscotta River. From the water we’ll explore the connections between land and sea, people and place, and learn about the river harvest, past and present. We’ll move downstream, from the historic shell middens and traditional uses for alewives, to the growing number of seaweed, oyster and other sea farms on the river. The boat will stop to visit Mook Sea Farm’s oyster hatchery, as well as a couple other oyster farms, and the tour will finish with a oyster tasting, paired with beers from nearby Oxbow Brewing Co.
