Coast of Maine
MAINE COAST OF MAINE
Lighthouses perched on rocky shores, evergreen forests, meadows, fresh seafood, galleries, seals, ducks, and secluded ponds … this is coastal Maine. And our tour — based on beautiful Mt. Desert Island — takes you there. Ride quiet roads in and around Acadia National Park, truly a cyclist’s paradise. And stay in one of Bar Harbor’s iconic waterfront inns.
