Safety and Weather Advice
There are many risks and uncertainties inherent in any tour, including but not limited to the hazards of various modes of transportation and the forces of nature. We at Tours of Lubec and Cobscook will do all in our power to make our tours as safe and enjoyable as possible. We expect you to exercise caution in hazardous conditions.
Please be advised that our boat tours are weather dependent and may be cancelled due to inclement weather. Our other tours may or may not be cancelled due to rain or fog. Call us before the tour if there is any question. If the tour will proceed, remember that these conditions may cause slippery walking. Lubec weather can be very different from that a few miles inland, and can change suddenly and unexpectedly. It is always colder on the water, so dress in layers for the boat trip.
