Trip to Maine - Post #13: Maine Maritime Museum

Our third full day in Maine took us north of Portland to explore various areas. We stopped in Bath, Maine for awhile and visited the Maine Maritime Museum. Well worth the visit! While here we grabbed a geocache to log our first ever find in the state of Maine!









As you can see, we took quite a few pictures! Plan to spend a few hours here. We came at a time that wasn't busy and the volunteer staff was wonderful! We went on a small tour of the grounds, learned about lobster fishing, and visited the boat shop and learned directly about making boats from one of the employees. There's a great indoor museum and several buildings with outdoor exhibits, including a blacksmith's forge! 

If heading north of Portland, definitely check out this museum in Bath. There's a ton of great seafood in the area too! Then again, it's Maine, so there's great seafood pretty much everywhere!
