A fresh Pearl Seas Cruises itinerary blends ports in Maine with destinations in New Brunswick and the Bay of Fundy. The new Pearl Seas Cruise weeklong itinerary operates round-trip Portland, Maine, aboard the 210-passenger PEARL MIST.
Ports include Rockland, Eastport and Bar Harbor in Maine, and Grand Manan Island, Saint Andrews and Saint John in New Brunswick.
Led by Pearl Seas’ expert guides, PEARL MIST passengers can stroll along the charming, turn-of-the-century streets of Saint Andrews’ National Historic District, and visit Grand Manan Island, renowned for whale-watching and bird-watching.
The cruise also visits Saint John on the Bay of Fundy, where the tides force the waters to reverse their flow, creating the famous Reversing Rapids at the mouth of the Saint John River.
Along the way PEARL MIST provides enrichment programs, regionally inspired dining, opportunities to view spectacular coastal scenery and chances to visit art galleries, historic sites, museums and markets.
Three departures are offered this year, on May 12, Oct. 16 and Oct. 23.
