Our tour starts off at the Portland Jetport for takeoff. We immediately climb out over the Fore River toward downtown Portland. Two minutes after takeoff, you’re treated to awesome views of the historic Old Port, Portland Sea Dogs Stadium, Back Cove, and the Eastern Promenade.
Upon leaving the downtown area, we head out into the bay, first passing by Fort Allen, Fort Gorges, Bug Lighthouse, and Fort Scammel on House Island.
Passing Portland Head Lighthouse, Fort Levett, and Ram Island Ledge Lighthouse, the tour continues toward Cape Elizabeth, where you have a great view of Twin Lights State Park and Cape Elizabeth Light. From there, we turn north toward the middle of the bay to enjoy fantastic views of Halfway Rock Lighthouse.
After we circle the lighthouse, your tour continues to Jewell and Cliff Islands, Whaleboat Island, and Chebeague Island, where you see Harpswell, Freeport, and Yarmouth, Maine.
Next, we fly to Little Chebeague Island, Long Island, Fort Lyon, and Great Diamond Island. There are an unbelievable 365 islands to see in the Casco Bay area, and we cover as many as we can!
