Maine:
No matter where-or when-you visit, you`ll receive a warm welcome from those who live here. And chances are that you`ll make some new friends on your Maine vacation. That`s just one more reason you`ll want to come back! Centuries ago the explorer Samuel de Champlain named it L`Isle des Monts-deserts, `the island of barren mountains.` From the splendour of these mountains of Acadia to the spectacular beauty of dawn`s first light in Lubec, Down East/Acadia will awe you. Hear the roar of Thunder Hole and the roar of The Cat`s engines, then experience the quiet solitude of West Grand. Feel the joy of spotting a whale offshore or an eagle`s nest in Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge. From glacial rock formations to quaint towns and seldom explored lakes and woods, Down East/Acadia beckons you. You`ll discover three beautiful and very different sections of Down East/Acadia. The quiet beauty of Washington County, with hundreds of miles of rugged coastline stretching from the Milbridge area to Passamaquoddy Bay and up to Calais, reflects an era gone by.  The eastern part of Washington County is `the road less traveled, `a place to get away from the maddening crowd. Vacationing here is tranquil and relaxing, whether you`re sitting on the porch of a cabin listening to the loons or canoeing the St. Croix River. Fall foliage abounds in its brilliant colors. Cobscook Bay State Park or the Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge offers trails and vistas where you can see eagles, woodcock, and a variety of flora. Enjoy superb downhill and cross-country skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and miles of spectacular snowmobile trails. Stay at a cozy country inn or bed and breakfast, where you can warm your toes in front of a roaring fire. Come in spring for whitewater rafting and kayaking on Maine`s big rivers. Take to the trails at Baxter State Park or Acadia, or any one of hundreds of other great hikes, as the bright new leaves mingle with the deep greens of Maine`s pine and spruce. Summer means sailing, canoeing, kayaking, and hiking. It`s the time for beaches, islands, lakes, loons, puffins, whales, windjammers, blueberries, lobsters with festivals to celebrate almost all of them. You can rough it at a wilderness camp or be pampered at a luxurious seaside inn or choose your favourite accommodations anywhere in between. And then it`s autumn. Crisp air, crunchy apples, fresh-pressed cider, and spectacular foliage. Browse through antique shops, enjoy the harvest fairs, or simply drive through the countryside while the magnificent colors of the season unfold before your eyes. If you`re looking for a great getaway, then head to Maine. You`ll find something special in each region. Embark on outdoor adventures like llama trekking, camping, skiing and snowmobiling. Go antiquing in charming villages. Relax on sandy beaches. Encounter amazing wildlife including whales, puffins and the mighty moose. Immerse yourself in Maine`s unique culture at our festivals and fairs. And of course, enjoy lobster the Maine way — fresh from the ocean. The possibilities are endless.
