Boothbay
is everything you would expect from a quaint New England town. It has beautiful village streets and interesting shops, band concerts and arts & crafts fairs on the library lawn, plus a coal fired steam train in a re-created historic town. Activities range from boating, sailing, canoeing and kayaking, to hiking, golf and tennis. The nearby rocky shores and quiet coves, and the historic lighthouses surrounding Boothbay provide lots of photographic opportunities. Many visitors come just to enjoy the sights and sounds of the harbor where you can watch lobster boats, fishing trawlers and windjammers, and see piles of clams, lobsters and mussels steaming on the dock. Some of the other interesting places to visit in Boothbay include the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens and Damariscove Island, which is the site of one of the earliest American colonies (established in 1605) and is now open to the public for hiking and bird watching. Shopping in the Boothbay Harbor region is a delightful experience where you'll find home made salt water taffy, ice cream and fudge, antiques, high quality glassware, pottery and original art by local artists and craftsmen. Each year, Boothbay hosts the Fishermen's Festival in April, and the exciting Windjammer Days in June. Wintertime brings its own special beauty when the Boothbay Common, in the Harbor, is filled with twinkling holiday lights and displays.

Mid-coast Maine, east of Brunswick, has an oceanic climate with four seasons. This area has an elevation of approximately 70 feet above sea level and is surrounded by rolling farmlands, forest areas, numerous islands, peninsulas, bays and beaches. Winter temperatures generally range from 0 to 40 degrees F. and while accumulating snow remains a possibility into March and early April, warmer days generally means relatively fast melts. . Ice storms can also occur in winter and early spring. Summers along the coast are cool, with temperatures in the 60 to 80 degrees range. Nights are usually chilly along the coast, year round. Rain can occur in any month of the year, with thunderstorms most common during the spring and summer months. Crisp, sunny days and cool nights make fall one of the most pleasant times of the year along the mid-coast, a very comfortable and colorful time of the year to visit Maine.
