HILARY NANGLE
Cobscook Shores
Maine Brews Cruise
Sebasco Harbor Resort on the Phippsburg Peninsula.
From the glacier-scoured beaches of the Southern Coast, around spruce-studded islands and Acadias granite shores, to the craggy cliffs Down East, Maines coastline follows a zigzagging route that would measure about 5,500 miles (8,855 km) if you stretched it taut. Eons ago, glaciers came crushing down from the north, squeezing the states coastline into a wrinkled landscape with countless bony fingers reaching toward the sea. Each peninsula has its own character, as does each island, each city, and each village. Thanks to its geography, most Maine Coast vistas are intimate, full of fir-trimmed islands and gray granite and sometimes-forbidding headlands. Now add 64 lighthouses, 90 percent of the nations lobsters, and the Eastern Seaboards highest peak.
When it comes to character, no individuals are more rugged than the umpteenth-generation fisherfolk who make their living from these bone-chilling waters. Even the summerfolk tend to be different here. Many return year after year, generation after generation, to the same place and the same neighbors and the same pursuits.
Then theres Maines coastal symphony: waves lapping and crashing, birds crying or singing, foghorns calling and bell buoys ringing, streams gurgling and leaves rustling. Shore breezes mingle the aromas of pine, balsam, or rugosa rose with the briny scent of the sea. Sometimes you can almost taste the salt in the air.

Lobster, of course, is king, and Maines seafood is ultrafresh, but dont overlook luscious wild blueberries, sweet Maine maple syrup, delicious farmstead cheeses, and homemade pies sold at roadside stands. Access to this bounty is one reason why talented chefs are drawn to the state.
Even if you dont dine at one of the hot restaurants with nationally known chefs, you can visit cheesemakers, fish smokers, artisan bakers, microbrewers, winemakers, distillers, and organic farmers. But balance that with a classic Maine beanhole or chowder suppah, where you can share a table with locals and, if youre lucky, hear a genuine Maine accent. (Heres a hint: Ayuh isnt so much a word as a sharp two-part intake of breath.)
Yes, theres a reason why more than eight million people visit Maine every year, and why longtime summerfolk finally just pick up stakes and settle here. Maine boldly promotes itself as The Way Life Should Be. Spend a little time in this extraordinarily special place and youll see why.
