And the salt air isn't the only thing that's refreshing: the people of Boothbay Harbor
pride themselves on turning strangers into friends. Whether you are planning a romantic
getaway, a fresh air retreat, or an extended sojourn from city life, you'll be glad
you found Boothbay Harbor.
Explore one of more than a dozen nature trails, try out our world-class golf course,
or experience some of the best sea kayaking available anywhere. Our harbor bustles
with fishing vessels and pleasure craft in equal numbers, and nothing beats the sight
of the schooners heading in from the afternoon trip with their sails bathed in the
rosy light of a spectacular sunset -unless of course you're lucky enough to be on
board!
Savor the wharves, with clams and mussels steaming on the dock; the tingle of sun
and salt on your skin; a cooling breeze, and the pleasant expectation of a succulent
lobster dinner.
Come enjoy nature at its best. Spectacular sunrises herald the new day; tall evergreens
march down the rocky coast, June's lupines and other wildflowers color local fields
and roadsides. Warm and sunny July days are tinged with occasional fog to add mystery.
The Fall color and crisp air of September and October is complemented by fun-filled
seasonal festivals.
Then it's the quiet of Winter, with wondrous sea smoke, magical holiday light displays,
and just enough snow to sugar-coat the scenery. Spring brings new life to the land
and renewed activity with the Fishermen's Festival in April, and the exciting Windjammer
Days in June. Regardless of when you come or how long you'll stay, we're certain you'll
find that the Boothbay Harbor Region truly is "the soul of the coast."
