The coastal state of Maine is a beautiful place for mariners. From the Bay of Fundy in the north to the Gulf of Maine in the south, there are miles of rocky coastline, and within the state, you’ll find many isolated rivers and lakes to explore as well. You can also enjoy plenty of Maine’s iconic seafood at ports along the way, from fresh lobster to delicious clam chowder.

Port Harbor Marine is your premier Portland, Maine, boat dealer. To help you cruise your way around the Pine Tree State, we’ve created this guide to boating in Maine.

Boothbay Harbor

This charming seaside village is the perfect place to dock your boat and enjoy some local culture. Located on the southeastern Gulf of Maine coast, Boothbay Harbor offers attractions like Linekin Bay Resort, with its $50-per-night deep-water moorings and the option to stay overnight in a waterfront cabin or lodge. Have a hearty dinner on the dock at The Deck Bar & Grill, then get some sleep and have breakfast in the morning before you set sail again. You can sharpen your boating skills here with some instructional courses as well.

Diamond Cove

Located in Casco Bay on the northeastern portion of Great Diamond Island is where you’ll find this beautiful little cove. The island itself was initially an artist’s colony before becoming a military base until the end of World War II. Today, it’s a quaint area with a general store, a restaurant and simply a nice place to visit on your boat.

Fore Points Marina

Right here in Portland, you’ll find this hospitable marina within a safe harbor that’s surrounded by Casco Bay. You’ll have easy access to plenty of fine dining, cute shops and fun activities when you dock here. Get your boat fueled up easily and take advantage of all the amenities available.
