Catch one of the many cruises that run up and down the coast with stops at many of the  islands that dot the coast of Maine. If fishing is your thing, be sure to stop at one of the ports along the coast, each has their own special fishing carter services. Maybe you would just like to drive down to Bar Harbor and join the Acadian Whale Adventures to watch humpback and finback whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and other marine sightings in the Gulf of Maine aboard a luxury Catamaran.

 
   
Cape Elizabeth Lighthouse Lighthouses are a must see.  They are still used today to warn ships of the rocky coast. The most famous and oldest is the Portland Head Light that is pictured in the header. The most powerful is the Cape Elizabeth Light at Cape Elizabeth.
