18 COASTAL TOWNS IN MAINE FOR THE ULTIMATE BEACH GETAWAY

Rockport:

This charming coastal town in Maine is also one of the most scenic in the northeast. It’s just a short drive southwest of Augusta, the capital of Maine, and is one of the coolest beach towns and hidden gems in Maine’s mid-coast region.

Indulge in the fresh seafood caught by the local fishermen. Go hiking along the coastal trails and stop by the small artisan shops that line its shores. In addition to its seaside charm and picturesque harbor, Rockport is also an art colony. As you take in a breathtaking scene filled with fishing boats and schooners, you’ll quickly see why this has been a refuge for creatives for centuries.
