Ferry Between Monhegan Island & New Harbor

Travel 10 miles into the Gulf of Maine to visit the tranquility of Monhegan Island. Slow down your pace and enjoy the natural beauty this island has to offer.

The small island is year-round home to only a few dozen residents. There are no paved roads and no cars, but the walking trails will take you to views atop the highest cliffs in Maine.

Whether you are visiting Monhegan Island for the day, overnight, or an extended period you must use a boat to get there!

Our passenger only cruises depart New Harbor and Monhegan Island twice daily in the peak season. This allows for “daytrippers” to spend about 5 hours exploring the island.

What to Expect

Our Monhegan ferry will depart from the working waterfront of New Harbor where you may see lobstermen unloading their catch.

As we pass by the coastal islands, keen eyes might spot bald eagles soaring, whales breaching, or harbor porpoises foraging.

Upon our return trip we may pass by some rocks where we spend a few minutes watching for seals sunbathing or splashing in the water.

Only go Hardy!

I always travel Hardy Boat when going to the islands and birding. Great boat line. Great staff. No Boothbay traffic and a quicker trip to Monhegan Island, giving you more time on the island.
