Maine Coast: Tips To Help You Get The Most!
Spring, Summer & Fall: Maine’s rocky coastline draws tourist from all over with dreams of exploring all it has to offer. Instead of hitting the southern coast and following Route 1 the whole way up the coast, where you will end up missing some really great spots, head to the authentic “Downeast” Maine. If you head to the eastern most point of the US, Eastport, you will be able to be one of the first in the country to see the sun rise. Watching the sunrise over the horizon of this small coastal town is magical. Winter Harbor is another great little coastal town that is not filled with traffic and tourist. You will hear about Bar Harbor and the Acadia area and Winter Harbor although is part of the area is not as well known as some of the other towns. Winter Harbor is part of the famous Schoodic Scenic By-way and one trip along 186 will tell you why. It is absolutely breathtaking and although the town is tiny, there is a great

Lobster: Don’t Get Caught In The Tourist “Traps”
Spring, Summer & Fall: Maine is known for lobster and no matter where you turn you will see plenty of restaurants touting their lobster specials. Twin lobsters, baked stuffed, lobster rolls you name it you can find it! It’s hard to know where the best spot to go is and that’s why you need some direction. First, your best bet is to stay clear of Route 1, not that the restaurants don’t serve quality lobster but, the price you will pay could afford you twice as much if you move in-land a little. The best places to go and enjoy lobster are the co-ops that you will usually fine in the small coastal towns where lobstering is a way of life. There is a great one in Pemaquid, The Fisherman’s Coop. This place is not fancy, picnic tables and plastic ware but, the food is as fresh as it comes and the views are unbelievable! This is almost as good as having a lobster bake at home (you can bring your own bottle of wine), without having to cook
