thinking about booking a Whale Watching tour in Bar Harbor, September 4th, from RCL (Explorer).

 

Any experience or comments you can share?

You will probably get some response here and you may want to post it on the New England board as well.

To my geographically challenged friend (from the east coast :eek:), the last time I looked Bar Harbor is in New England and still part of the US. But to answer your question in re to whale watching from BH. I found this while researching a similar question.

 

From late April through October, a number of cetacean species feed in the Gulf of Maine, including humpback, finback and minke whales. Later in the summer, around August, northern right whales arrive. All of the various kinds of whales remain off the Maine coast into October before they head out in search of warmer waters.
