Toppsesong — Cruise ship season, Memorial Day weekend

• Sesong

  Cruise ship season

  1. mai – 31. oktCruisesesongMye folk

  Ships tender into the harbour from May, and the heaviest calls land in September and October with the leaf cruises. The town's thousand-passenger daily cap survived court only for July and August, so the autumn days are the crowded ones. Kilde ↗

• Åpning

  The CAT ferry to Nova Scotia

  14. mai – 14. okt · vanligvisSommersesongen åpnerBestill tidlig

  The fast ferry to Yarmouth runs from mid-May to mid-October and takes three and a half hours across the Gulf of Maine. Outside those dates the only way to Nova Scotia is a very long drive. Kilde ↗

  Memorial Day weekend

  Memorial Day, the last Monday of May, opens the summer travel season: over the long weekend campsites and lodging book out, roads are slow, and parking at the most popular spots fills early in the day. Kilde ↗

  Lobster season

  15. jun – 15. des · vanligvisSankesesong

  Most of the Maine catch comes ashore between the summer shed and the end of autumn, and prices at the pounds follow the boats. Late summer soft-shell lobster is cheaper and sweeter than the hard-shell you get flown out of state.

  Peak summer season

  1. jul – 31. augSkoleferieMye folkBestill tidlig

  A town of five thousand hosting several million park visitors a year does most of it now. Rooms are booked months out, and the Island Explorer bus is quicker than looking for a parking space downtown.

  The Fourth of July is a federal holiday: banks and government offices close, fireworks draw large crowds to parks and waterfronts after dark, and roads and flights are busy over the long weekend. Claim a viewing spot early. Kilde ↗

  Labor Day, the first Monday of September, is the last big getaway of summer: the long weekend books out campsites and lodging and fills parking early, and families thin out quickly once it has passed. Kilde ↗

  Mount Desert Island turns through the first half of October, later than inland Maine because the sea holds its heat. The colour and the leaf-peeping cruise calls arrive in the same fortnight.
