Overview

You will enjoy stunning ocean views as we ride along historic Boothbay byways that traverse the length of historic Spruce Point, where the Wawenock once fished and early colonials settled. We’ll see the historic Spruce Point Inn, host to the Kennedys and Ernest Hemingway and named as one of the Northeast’s top 25 resorts by Conde Nast Traveler. Along the way, we’ll see one of the last large coastal lodges built prior to the Great Depression and take in some of the most beautiful coastline water views in Midcoast Maine before strolling along America’s longest wooden footbridge. Your entertaining guide has collected some intriguing historical tales to share that you didn’t learn about in history class.
