Boothbay Harbor, ME – Mid-Coast Fishing Village

Boothbay Harbor has long been cherished by Mainers and Tourists alike for its idyllic yet authentic vibe.

The mid-coast fishing village is located at the end of a peninsula, differentiating it from the majority of Maine’s mid-coast communities which are located along Route 1, about 10-15 miles from the ocean. The seaside get-away offers kayaking tours and whale watching excursions, as well as a collection of unique shops and restaurants, making it a destination with something for everyone.

" To this day Boothbay is known for its ties to the sea"

During the mid-1600’s English fisherman and farmers settled in Boothbay where fishing and shipbuilding soon became the region’s leading industries. To this day Boothbay is known for its ties to the sea, and each year during the last week of June and the first week of July, the community comes together to honors its maritime history with a celebration called Windjammer Days. The festival marks the kickoff of summer. The snow has finally melted, visitors are trickling back into town and locally owned businesses gear up for their busy season.

The annual Windjammer Days Festival has taken place for over 50 years and is presented by Friends of Windjammers, a non-profit organization whose mission is to highlight the community’s collective passion for the sea and keeping traditions alive for generations to come. While the week-long celebration is full of family friendly events like the Cod Fish Relay and Lighted Boat Parade, the main attraction and reason for celebration is the Gathering of the Fleet. Each Windjammer is a reminder of Boothbay’s connection to the Sea, both past and present.
