Maine Profile
Maine, the most northeastern state in the entire United States, is the country of pointed firs, abundant waterways, pristine lakes, picturesque bays, and over 5,500 miles of beautiful white sand beaches. Here, the sea and inland waters provide a way of life found nowhere else. Here, nautical reminders abound, as do menus full of fresh seafood, particularly a huge variety of fresh fish, succulent Maine lobster, delicious crab, tasty shellfish, and rich, creamy bisques and chowders. All along the scenic coastline are numerous islands, quaint fishing towns, romantic inns, wooden fishing piers, and stately lighthouses that have inspired astounding paintings, books, and striking photography recognized the world over. Outdoor activities include windjammer cruises, canoeing, kayaking, fishing tours, and whitewater rafting. And for those lacking sea legs, landlubbers can enjoy golf, hiking, camping, hunting, and snow sports. Maine is also home to some of the finest antique shops and retail outlets in America. Here, shoppers can find that one-of-a kind rarity or search for a finishing piece to their own antique collections by day, have a delicious meal, and retire to a quaint bed and breakfast or seaside inn. For entertainment, gaming is plentiful throughout the state. Portland and Brunswick are home to several casinos, while Scarborough Downs and Bangor Raceway offer exciting horse racing and betting. And don’t forget Penobscot High Stakes BINGO on Indian Island in Old Town. Amusement parks, historical sites, and nautical museums also dot the state.Current Temperature:
