In an area of Maine with multiple gorges and waterfalls, Coos Canyon stands out among the rest. As a part of the Swift River and right along the road, the spot is extremely popular, especially for swimming. The canyon here was carelessly carved by nature through years of erosion into uniquely curving walls with swift currents and pounding water to make it even better, creating deep swimming holes along the way. Crystal clear to the bottom, all ages like to stop here for a dip or jump into the pristine swimming holes.
