    This took me back to the summer of 2021. My husband and I got married in Connecticut and honeymooned the entirety of New England and Maine blew us the way. We did a lobster fishing expedition, went to endless lobster shacks for lunch, Holy Donut and the Portland lighthouse which, like you mentioned is incredible. Rumor has it that it’s the one in the Red Lobster advertising. We always have the best time in Maine and we’re planning another trip there before the end of the year. TFS.

    Maine is lovely. It’s why I moved home after many years away. The rest of us have mountains and forests, ponds, lakes, rivers, and waterfalls. And relatively few tourists. Next time, you should come inland and see what the rest of the state has. 🙂

    I have taken a couple of trips to Maine. We drove there, so I was able to take my bicycle. For any of your viewers that like to bike, I would recommend exploring the area on two wheels. On my last trip, we stayed at a house in Bar Harbor. From there, I did a ride on Park Loop Road to Jordan Pond. Then I took the carriage paths in the park around Jordan Pond and Eagle Lake. It is a great way to see places that you might otherwise miss if you are only walking or driving. Thanks for the video!

    I did a summer camp in Maine last summer and it was honestly the best time of my life. I was 18 from the UK and didn't know what to expect from Maine as there isn't many videos on it. The state is so beautiful with the best sunsets I've ever seen and amazing stars, the nature is just amazing that you bond with people through it rather than the normal ways of drinking and partying. I honestly couldn't recommend going to Maine more, I then traveled the whole East Coast after and I can still say Maine is my favorite. This video gave loads of nostalgia, and it feels like I've already peaked in life lol

    Hello Allison,
    My first trip to Acadia NP was a last moment change of plans, about fifteen years ago. I've been back five times. I grew up in the midwest, but my parents were from NY and MA, so I was no stranger to the ocean.
    Whenever I go east, that first whiff of salt water transports me back in time.
    Glad you enjoyed your experience in Maine, and thanks for posting this. (Looking over your shoulder from Otter Cliffs was fantastic.) 🙂

The view from the top of Cadillac Mountain with a true sunrise is truly something else to behold. Hopefully you get to make it back up there one day for fall colors, as they will not disappoint!

    Oh. My. Goodness. First of all, as a lighthouse lover, this video is already epic. I have several books and mini-replicas of lighthouses..including Cape Neddick and Portland Head. But the rest of your footage is no less breathtaking. Seriously incredible. Those opening scenes of the fog below , with the lights from the boats gently piercing the grayness, gave a spooky and stunning vibe. Major chills there. That cliff hike at Acadia might be a little much for me, yikes. Congrats on doing that btw! But there's more than enough to fill the itinerary. This stirred my soul and stole my heart...all in 10 minutes. So yeah, safe to say Maine makes the list. Thanks so much Allison
