Creator's Key Takeaways
Overall, was it a delightful and easy day? Absolutely.
But if I'm being completely honest, I don't know that I would get off the ship again in Rockland unless I had an excursion booked.
That said, if lobster tasting is your goal, this is absolutely your place.
Rockland is a tender port, but the ride into town was quick and easy.
