A Coastal Maine Road Trip
There are a couple of classic road trips throughout the US but in the Northeast, I think the route that comes to mind most often would be Maine.
Rugged yet charming, coastal with the backdrop of beautiful mountains, Maine's coast is one of its most attractive destinations that draw big crowds each summer.
We spent just over 10 days in Maine and focused on a trio of cities – Kennebunkport, Portland and Rockland – as well as some leisurely, unplugged time out on the water.
We joined a classic Maine windjammer cruise to sail for 4 days out in the Penobscot Bay, an inlet famous for secluded offshore islands and lobster fishing.
Today we're sharing everything you need to know about road tripping in Maine, along with our itinerary, where we stayed and recommended sights!
