Maine information
Maine is virtually synonymous with its rugged and convoluted
coastline--restless surf washes up on some 3,000 miles of Maine, including rocky
shores, sandy beaches, and remote offshore islands. The coast is home to Acadia
National Park, along with such notably attractive villages as Kennbunkport,
Boothbay Harbor, Camden, and Blue Hill. During the peak summer months of July
and August, coastal Route 1 teems with minivans and RVs seeking out quiet
oceanside campgrounds and inns, along with wharf-side lobster pounds to feast on
the local delicacy.
Maine's coast can be neatly divided along geological lines. South of
Portland, the seaboard is relatively straight and unbroken, studded with
expansive sand beaches at historic resort communities like York Beach, Ogunquit,
and Kennebunkport. (While the swimming is enjoyable, in-water sessions tend to
be brief: the ocean rarely tops 60 degrees even in August.) North and east of
Portland, the coastline is defined by a series of rockbound peninsulas and
points that jut out into the sea. Because of the irregular topography, direct
coastal driving routes are rare, and once off Route 1 travel here still feels
more like exploring than touring.
Yet Maine is more than its coast. It's a huge state by regional standards--as
big as the five other New England states combined. Northern Maine extends far,
far to the north--Portland is closer to Manhattan than it is to Madawaska,
Maine's northernmost town. In the north and the west, one finds a mix of
commercial timberlands, brawny mountains, and azure lakes. The North Woods are
internationally noted for excellent canoeing and fishing.
Maine is a state of small cities and towns. The largest city--Portland--has a
population of just 65,000 (about twice that if you include the suburbs). Other
cities include Lewiston, Auburn, and Bangor, but the population of these four
cities combined is only about 150,000. That means that seven out of eight
Mainers live in smaller towns (mostly along the coast) like Brunswick, Bath,
Rockland, and Ellsworth.
Maine is unique among the northeastern states for its continued dependence on
the land and sea to support its economy. Timber companies own and manage much of
the North Woods, and numerous lobster boats still prowl offshore ledges and
islands. Because much of the land base is still productive and undeveloped by
residential or industrial development, wildlife in the state is abundant. It's
not uncommon to see black bear, moose, Eastern coyote, and a variety of
intriguing birds, including bald eagles, loons, razorbills, and puffins.
