Looking for an adventure that includes epic coastal views, amazing food, whale watching, camping, and amusement parks? We’ve got you covered. Coastal Maine has all these things and more. This road trip guide takes you to five must-visit destinations along Maine’s scenic coastline with things to do and places to eat and stay on your way.

Here are five Maine destinations to add to your next road trip: 👇

1. Kennebunkport. This cute coastal town is filled with things to do, including whale watching, an electric railway museum, and arguably some of the best lobster rolls. Plus you can glamp or camp at Sandy Pines Campground.

2. Old Orchard Beach. With a waterfront amusement park and the famed Old Orchard Beach Pier, this stop offers coastal views and even has a waterfront RV campground with private decks where you can soak up the scenery.

3. Portland. Known for the most photographed lighthouse in the U.S., Portland is the largest city in Maine offering a fascinating history. Take a walking history tour, catch fresh lobster with Lucky Catch Cruises, and stop at Holy Donut for a sweet treat to end your day.

4. Damariscotta. Referred to as the “Napa Valley of Oysters,” learn all about the oyster industry in this coastal town while sipping wines paired with oysters. There are amazing eateries and an RV campground with beautiful lakefront sites.

5. Bar Harbor. The gateway town to Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor offers plenty of dining and shopping options. Walk out on the ocean floor at low tide in the harbor and be sure to spend time on the many hiking trails in Acadia National.

My husband and I are sitting at The Clam Shack in Kennebunkport Maine, at this moment, eating a Lobster Roll and whole Lobster. Made the trip from South Carolina after seeing the show. Thanks for the suggestions for Maine. We hope to see all of them. Food was great and atmosphere was very memorable.

You did a perfect job on the Maine video, we use to go all the time in the 1970s, and use to get lobsters right on the docks, steamed right there for $3 a piece
