Camden Harbor
A natural harbour crowded with old windjammers. The harbour park, the waterfall, and the restaurants along the waterfront make up Maine's most classic seaside town scene.
Camden Harbor is the heart of Maine's 'Windjammer Capital.' More than ten historic windjammers and yachts are moored here year-round. From June to September you can take a 2-hour harbour sailing trip (about 50–60 US dollars) or a 3- to 6-day multi-day sailing voyage. Harbor Park on the north shore and the library's outdoor amphitheatre are good spots for a picnic with a view of the harbour. At the head of the harbour, the Megunticook River forms a small waterfall. Main Street and Bayview Street are lined with restaurants, galleries, and lobster-roll shops. The town is walkable, but parking is scarce, so in summer arrive early or park outside town.
