Miles of Pristine
Coastline
Maine will give you a wonderful far-away feeling while you remain close to everything.
With thousands of miles of uninhabited shoreline to explore, you’ll feel like you’re in your own magical world while you’re cruising the coast. Find exclusive anchorages, remote swimming holes, and secret beaches. Drop anchor and ride your dinghy into shore to take a hike through island trails. Then enjoy the sun setting over pine-covered granite cliffs from the deck of your boat.
