Maine

Nearly as large as the other five New England states combined, Maine offers more than 32,000 square miles of exploration and adventure. Bird watching or paddling in spring, discovering a new mountain path or coastal village in the summer, delighting in the glorious colors of autumn, and enjoying the deep snows of winter, it’s easy to see why Maine’s outdoor activities are unparalleled. Much of Maine’s culture emanates from the sea, and the state’s maritime heritage is readily seen—lobstermen and their buoys dot the shore and windjammers cruise the coastline daily. Maine embraces all that is authentic, unique, and simple, and Mainers take pride and are inspired by the wide-open spaces of the state’s deep woods and vibrant coastline. Visitors come to Maine to discover their own inspiration— whether it’s the joy of finding the best locally crafted beer or handmade gift, the soul-restoring calm of watching the sun rise over the Atlantic, or the thrill of summiting a mountain peak.
