Dock Square boutiques, Goose Rocks Beach, and the Bush family's Walker's Point - the quintessential coastal Maine summer town.

Portland
Maine's largest city - a working waterfront, Old Port cobblestones, and a food scene that punches well above its weight.

Shipbuilding heart of Maine since 1743 - Bath Iron Works still launches destroyers past the Maine Maritime Museum on the Kennebec.
Midcoast Islands
Boothbay Harbor
Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, lobster-boat cruises, and a walkable harbor that lights up with half a million twinkle lights in winter.
