Frommer's Maine Coast and Fodor's Maine Coast
The Frommer's Maine coast guide works its way up from the south (Kittery, the Yorks, Ogunquit and the Kennebunks), through Portland and Freeport, then on up to mid-coast area and northeast to Downeast Acadia. The Fodor's Maine Coast guide is a great companion. (Please note that a purchase here supports Maine.Info. As always, we list the Amazon customer service number, which is 800-201-7575).
