Discover Moosehead: Guided Lake Cruises

There’s something special about experiencing Moosehead Lake from the water—something that is unfortunately less accessible than it should be. Well now, we’re excited to offer a whole new way to do just that.

Northeast Whitewater is proud to introduce our brand new Moosehead Lake boat cruises, designed to give you a relaxing, scenic, and unforgettable perspective of Maine’s most iconic and largest lake.

Cruise in Comfort on Our Brand New Pontoon Boat

Our cruises take place aboard a brand new pontoon boat built for comfort, stability, and great views in every direction. Whether you’re kicking back with friends, spending time with family, or looking for a unique date night, this is the perfect way to enjoy the lake.

With space for up to 10 guests per trip, every cruise feels personal—not crowded—giving you plenty of room to stretch out and take it all in.

Led by a Registered Maine Guide

Each trip is led by a Registered Maine Guide who knows these waters inside and out. Along the way, you’ll get more than just a boat ride—you’ll hear stories, learn about the region’s history, and gain insight into the wildlife and landmarks that make Moosehead Lake so special.

It’s the kind of local knowledge that turns a scenic cruise into a truly memorable experience.

Two Daily Cruises to Choose From

We’re offering two distinct 3-hour experiences each day, so you can pick the vibe that fits your plans:

Midday Moosehead Lake Cruise (3 Hours)
Perfect for soaking up the sunshine and exploring the lake’s beauty in full daylight. Expect stunning mountain views, peaceful coves, and to experience the vastness of Moosehead.

Evening Sunset Cruise (3 Hours)
A slower, more laid-back experience timed perfectly with Maine’s incredible sunsets. Watch the sky light up over the water as the day winds down—this one’s hard to beat.

Iconic Views of Mount Kineo

No trip on Moosehead Lake is complete without taking in the towering presence of Mount Kineo. Rising dramatically from the water, this massive cliff face is one of the most recognizable landmarks in the region.

From the boat, you’ll get a unique vantage point of Kineo’s sheer rock walls and sweeping ridgeline—views that simply can’t be matched from shore. It’s a highlight of the cruise and a favorite for photos.

And just wait until you hear about Kineo’s incredible history! We’ll save that story for the boat.

Convenient Departure in Downtown Greenville

Our boat is docked right in the heart of downtown Greenville at the Dockside Inn & Tavern, making it easy to hop aboard and head straight out onto the lake.

Grab a bite or a drink before or after your trip, stroll through town, and make a full day (or evening) out of your visit.

A Must-Do Moosehead Experience

Whether you’re visiting the Moosehead Lake region for the first time or you’ve been coming here for years, seeing it from the water offers a completely different perspective. 

From calm waters and scenic shorelines to unforgettable sunsets, our boat cruises are all about slowing down and enjoying the moment.

We’ve spent years showing off our rivers and our wildlife and now we can’t wait to show off the crown jewel of our region. 

Book Your Cruise

Spots are limited to just 10 guests per trip, so we recommend booking ahead to secure your seat.

Come experience Moosehead Lake the way it was meant to be seen—on the water.
