About Maine
Known for
A rugged Atlantic coastline, lobster, and Acadia National Park’s granite peaks and shoreline.
Best time to visit
Late June-September for warm weather and coastal access, or late September-October for fall foliage -- winters (December-February) are long and cold.
Getting around
A car is necessary -- Maine’s attractions are spread along the coast with limited public transit between towns.
Suggested trip length
4-5 days for the coast and Acadia.
