Midcoast

All along the Mid-Coast Region, you’ll discover seaside resorts, charming villages, glacier-carved peninsulas, and grand panoramas. Come hideaway at an acclaimed inn, B&B, hotel, motel, cottage, or campground. Go antiquing, attend a country auction, browse irresistible shops, visit a museum, and take in a play or concert.

Go hiking or kayaking, sail on a famous windjammer, take a scenic train excursion, ferry to spectacular islands, or go sightseeing for seals, whales, puffins, and dolphins. Join the fun at one of our special events, too! When it’s time to dine, there’s everything from salty to sophisticated, including plenty of just-caught lobster. In the winter, go skiing, skating, or tobogganing, or just curl up by the fire.
