September trip to Maine
Aug 2, 2022 12:17:42 #
I spend that time of the year in midcoast Maine and have taken one-on-one tours with Dee Peppe of Coastal Maine Photo Tours. She has taken me to some great photo spots as well as offered terrific tips. You may want to check out her website www.coastalmainephototours.com. She also has group photo tours
The islands of Vinalhaven and Monhegan are truly special and much less crowded than Arcadia if you are into places off the beaten path.

What’s wrong with Monhegan Island? We had a great trip there. Just curious as to your thoughts.
What's wrong with Monhegan? Absolutely nothing.
Other than the fact that it's one of the greatest places on Earth.

I agree with you. Monhegan is so special and I found it magical. I think you misread my comment.

Thank you all for all the wonderful suggestions, I think we'll have to spend the balance of the year in Maine!

I concur. I’ve been there multiple times. It’s just when I read “that horrible little nightmare of an island” in your post i assumed you didn’t like it very much.
We really enjoy it and the next time we go to Maine we will primarily stay there. I’m hope to plan for 10 days. It’s a great place to unplug from the world.

I understand that. I was responding to Cany143 if you check the thread.

I know some people like to tell others a place is "lousy" so that tons pf people don't start going there and have it get over-crowded...

Forget the coast. Nice indeed yet after a while it becomes redundant. Check out Rangeley and other inland places of interest. You won’t regret it.

Yes I know. I do that with fishing and hunting spots as well as some photo locations!! 😎 It would be pretty hard to get Monhegan island crowded. I think last I heard there were 65 to 100 year round residents. We
Usually go for 2-4 weeks in July. there are Great hiking and photo opps. If you take the Marshall Point ferry it can be visited in a day but your have to take the first boat over and the last boat back. Personally we like to spend the night at the inn

If you get to Lubec check out The Inn on the Wharf. A super place to stay and great food in their restaurant “The Wharf.” If you have your passports go across the bridge to Campobello where you can visit Roosevelt’s summer “cottage” and at the tip of the island is a beautiful lighthouse. Would love for you to post pics after your trip.
