    Gosh, where do I begin.
    This is a place I need to start recommending to people visiting Maine for the first time. Lobster is already an iconic experience of a food of the area, but having it on a small island you take a ferry to is truly something special.
    It's fun to walk around the island while you wait for your food. And the meal itself is incredible too.
    Only thing I didn't like was the clam chowder, which was rather watery.

    The staff is great to talk to as well. I can't imagine the work that goes into running a place like this but it's something I'd recommend to anyone looking for a quintessential Maine experience.

    We are from Kansas City and this vacation was our first time to Maine. I had heard about Cabbage Island Clambake as being a highly recommended experience. So- I put it on our itinerary and I’m sooooo glad we went. I LOVED IT! It’s a winner and a must! The lobster and clam were my first and the bar is now set super high. The meal was so good. Don’t miss out.

    On 7/4 we boarded the Bennie Alice and learned all kinds of cool stuff from Captain Gusto on the way to Cabbage Island, a beautiful little island near Boothbay Harbor. They've been doing their huge seafood bakes for 60 years, which makes sense--- the team moves like a well oiled machine, something that comes from years of perfecting your craft. We got to explore a little bit while the team prepared their famous clam bake, which includes: clam chowder, TWO big old lobsters, steamed clams, corn on the cob, a baked potato, a hard boiled egg, and a thick slice of Blueberry Cake. They also have a chicken option if lobster isn't your thing, and a hot dog option for kids. You're also allowed to bring your own food! My partner and I packed a vegan picnic (though I absolutely did eat some of this food. You expect me to ever stay away from blueberry pastries?????)

    Take a 45 minute boat ride and guided harbor tour out to Cabbage Island. Once there you get two lobsters, clams, a baked potato, corn on the cob, a hard boiled egg, and an onion. You get a generous piece of fresh blueberry cake. The views on the island are amazing also.

    We went on this excursion today and had a wonderful time. The boat ride there and back was informative and relaxing. The food was plentiful and the staff was friendly. I would definitely do this again.
