Farnsworth Art Museum
Known for its Wyeth collection, the Farnsworth in Rockland is one of the country’s finest regional art museums.

Rockland Lighthouse
The Rockland Breakwater Lighthouse is at the end of a mile-long granite breakwater that protects Rockland Harbor.  You can walk on the breakwater and watch lobstermen pulling their traps and windjammers under sail in Penobscot Bay, or stay onshore and enjoy the sandy beach and ocean views.

Windjammer Cruises
Over a dozen Maine windjammers operating out of Rockland and Camden harbors offer unforgettable 3 or 6-day cruises.   Outstanding food and unsurpassed scenery make for an unforgettable Maine adventure.  If you’re short on time, several windjammers offer shorter cruises lasting one to several hours.

Camden Hills State Park
Two miles north of Camden on US Route 1, Camden Hills State Park offers breathtaking panoramic views of Camden Harbor and Penobscot Bay from the summit of Mt. Battie, which can be reached by hiking or a short drive.  When driving through Camden, allow some time to stop and enjoy the waterfront, views of the harbor, and the fine shops and restaurants.

Popham Beach
Popham Beach in Phippsburg (near Bath) is one of Maine’s finest sandy beaches.  Three miles of curving sandy beach for great swimming, natural rock outcroppings and tidal pools for
interesting explorations; and an historic fort on the banks of the Kennebec River make this a great place for a family outing or a solitary walk.  The Maine Maritime Museum, in Bath on the way to Popham, is worth a stop.

Pemaquid Lighthouse
The Pemaquid Lighthouse towers above some of the most spectacular granite cliffs in Maine.  Kids and adults alike love to scramble over the ledges and get close to the crashing surf.   Not far from the lighthouse is the beautiful crescent-shaped sandy beach of Pemaquid Beach Park.

Boothbay Harbor
The harbor area is a popular tourist attraction, with whalewatching and recreational cruises, restaurants, and lots of shops.  Just a few miles away, on the road less traveled, are the beautiful lighthouses and islands of Linekin Bay as seen from Ocean Point and Newagen.  Take the sinuous oceanfront drive that snakes along the shore close enough for the surf to spray you at high tide.

Monhegan Island
Maine’s most famous island can be reached by passenger boat from Port Clyde or New Harbor.  The island is a haven for artists and birdwatchers, and for hikers and walkers who enjoy the spectacular views from the island’s dramatic cliffs.

Orr’s Island/Bailey Island
These two islands, part of Harpswell and accessible by car from Brunswick, are connected to the mainland by the world’s only granite cribstone bridge, a fascinating architectural  work of art.  The islands offer views of quaint fishing villages, rocky shores, and lobstermen at work. The gift shop at the end of the island, aptly named Land’s End, offers a wide variety of Maine-inspired gifts as well as great views of Casco Bay.

Reid State Park
Over a mile and a half of sandy beach, rocky headlands, a warm water swimming lagoon, and views of islands and a lighthouse make the drive to the end of Georgetown Island worth the 15 mile drive from Bath.
