Maine has some of the best sand beaches in the United States - Oquinqut Beach, located in southern Maine, is consistently ranked in the top five in the U.S. The Chimani Maine guide includes over 80 beaches throughout the coast - from the ironic sandy beaches in the south to the harder to find smaller pocket beaches Downeast. With a coastline longer than California, there are a tremendous amount of opportunities to explore and enjoy the coastline in Maine. However, with the increasing privatization of the coastline with summer house and public access conflicts, it's becoming increasingly harder to know exactly where there is public coastal access. Whether it's to explore the tidal pools, relax with a little fishing, or simply stare out into the ocean, the Chimani Maine guide includes over 600 spots throughout the entire coast of Maine. As the warmer temperatures increase in the summer, tourists and locals head to their favorite swimming holes to cool down. Whether it's a local beach or an iconic Maine waterfall, the Chimani Maine guide includes over 90 swimming spots to help you cool down.
