Family Fun

The "Pine Tree State" is famous for its beautiful sightseeing landmarks and iconic lighthouses. There are more than 60 historic lighthouses along the coast, and can be explored on a boat tour or by traveling by land in a car. Make sure to visit at least one before you leave the state!

You can also plan a sightseeing tour of the forests and try to catch a glimpse of the wildlife in the area. In Maine, the forests are home to moose and black bears. If you are more interested in marine life, hop on a boat and look out for whales below and puffins above. Scenic Byways offer a pleasant view as well. Don't miss Maine's unique scenic roads like the Acadia All-American Highway, the Old Canada Road Scenic Byway, or the Schoodic National Scenic Byway.


Another top activity to do when visiting Maine is enjoying its numerous waterways and coastlines. More than 3,000 miles of shoreline can be found in Maine, where water sports and activities, such as kayaking, windjamming, paddle boarding, and nature cruising, are at the top of the list of things to do. Picnic areas are also found near many of the lake beaches, and plenty of lake recreation like canoeing, kayaking, or riding motorboats takes place.

Food and Drink

Maine's Lobster is definitely a state specialty. Although it's one of the world's most iconic seafood, Maine's should be at the top of the list. Mainers have had centuries of practice preparing such an exquisite plate in different presentations, like a classic lobster roll in a top restaurant's interpretation. There is a wide variety of lobster restaurants around Maine, from classic lobster to the finest artistic plate. All are delicious and have Maine's original lobster taste, which is wholly unique.
