Lighthouses & Lobster – Portland & Bar Harbor
About this cruise
You board in Boston on September 20, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Portland, Bar Harbor, Eastport and Halifax, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Manhattan skyline to maritime Canada. City energy at one end, quiet fishing towns at the other. Bar Harbor stands out. It's Acadia's granite coast at your doorstep. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Norwegian Breakaway has 20 dining spots on board, most of them included. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. All in all, it's a solid trip.
