Things to do in Maine in the summer of 2006
1. Boothbay Harbor
Windjammer Days June 27, 28 Web site boothbayharbor.com
Cabbage Island Clambakes Web site cabbageislandclambakes.com
Whale Watches
Stay at:
Little Ponderosa, heavily wooded, near tidal stream, mosquitos may be in issue.. It is my favorite however. Short drive to downtown.
Shore Hills: Most short stays are put out in the open. It is really a big parking lot. There are better sites back in the woods but you have to ask. Less mosquitos. About two miles closer to downtown. They have a shuttle sometime Favorite restaurant Lobsterman’s Wharf in East Boothbay
DO drive around Ocean Point, South Port and Linekin Bay
Don’t even think about hauling your coach downtown.
2. Freeport
LL Bean
Outlet stores
Desert of Maine
Stay at Durham Freeport KOA or Desert of Maine, I prefer the KOA
3. Yarmouth
Clam Festival July 21-23 Web Site clamfestival.com
Both above campgrounds are relatively close
4. Rockland
Maine Lobster Festival July 2-6 Web Site mainelobsterfestival.com
Ferry to Vinalhaven You don’t really need a vehicle but there is/or was a taxi on the island
5. Camden
Tons of stuff to do. Check camdenmaine.org This place is pretty touristy but great food and great scenery. Check out Camden Hills State Park
6. Bar Harbor Again, tons of stuff to do.
Stay at Narrows, Narrows Too or KOA. We stay at Timberlands for a variety of reasons but the other three are probably better but also more expensive and closer to town.
