We both needed a break from our hectic lives and the maritime tour gave us exactly what we needed. The northern coast of Maine is simply one of the most beautiful places in North America. Its rugged coastline calls to mind the western coasts of Ireland and Scotland. Salt water beaches await the adventurous swimmer.
Spectacular sunrises greet the early riser.
This will be a tour to remember as we encounter some of the most beautiful maritime views to be found anywhere in the world. We'll stop at small fishing harbors and islands to watch lobster being unloaded from lobster traps and ships headed out to sea. Starting out in Bar Harbor, Maine, we will begin with a full day of exploring Acadia National Park and the rest of Mount Desert Island. You might choose to ride along the coastal road or hop on a boat to do some whale watching. In the morning, you might travel to the top of Cadillac Mountain to be among the first in the United States to see the sunrise.
