Map of Maine Perched at the northeast tip of the United States, Maine is a state of fresh air, crystal-clear cobalt waters and deep pine forests populated by endless species of wildlife. Just one visit to this rugged land can renew your spirit and refresh your perspectives -- hence Maine's motto, "The way life should be".

The photos below are of Bar Harbor, Acadia National Park, and Portland, all on the southeastern coastline.

Acadia National Park

Acadia National Park is located on Mount Desert Island, a bulbous stretch of land suspended off the mainland. Park Loop Road snakes all over the island; the summit is known as Cadillac Mountain.

Bar Harbor

"The Bar" is a muddy stretch of land connecting Bar Harbor to Bar Island. Once on Bar Island, keep an eye on your watch - once the tide rolls in you'll be stranded!

Portland - Casco Bay

Casco Bay View from the Eastern Promenade which stretches along northeast Portland, and offers fantastic views of Casco Bay. Make yourself comfortable on one of the many park benches and take in the view...

Definitely my favorite place in Portland

Casco Bay Looking out, all you see are sailboats and islands (and this time of year - October - some foliage)
