Activity itinerary

Old Port

  • 1h
Step onto the heart of Portland’s maritime soul at the Working Waterfront, where weathered docks and salty air still tell the story of a city built by the sea. As fishing boats unload the day’s catch and gulls wheel overhead, you’ll feel the pulse of a harbor that feeds both Portland’s economy and its culture. This stop offers more than just a view—it’s a chance to experience a living, breathing connection to the sea, where tradition and industry meet in every tide and timbered wharf.

Commercial Street

  • 1h 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Stop: Portland Fish Exchange Visit the Portland Fish Exchange, one of the only remaining working fish auctions in the United States. On auction days, you may witness the fast-paced sale of fresh catch as fishermen and buyers move through the process in real time. On non-auction days, you’ll still get a behind-the-scenes look at how seafood is landed, handled, and prepared for market, along with insight into the systems that keep Portland’s fishing industry running. Stop: ISF Trading Step inside ISF Trading, a working seafood processing facility, for a hands-on look at where some of Maine’s freshest seafood is prepared and distributed. During your visit, you’ll sample a selection of fresh, raw seafood while learning about sourcing, seasonality, and what makes Maine seafood so highly regarded.
