Lotação máxima — Cruise ship season, Memorial Day weekend

• Temporada

  Cruise ship season

  1 Mai – 31 OutTemporada de cruzeirosLotado

  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. Fonte ↗

• Abertura

  The CAT ferry to Nova Scotia

  14 Mai – 14 Out · normalmenteAbertura da temporada de verãoReserve cedo

  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. Fonte ↗

• Feriado

  Memorial Day weekend

  23–25 MaiFeriado nacionalLotadoReserve cedo

  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. Fonte ↗

• Natureza

  Lobster season

  15 Jun – 15 Dez · normalmenteTemporada de coleta

  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.

Lotação máxima — Cruise ship season, Peak summer season

  Peak summer season

  1 Jul – 31 AgoFérias escolaresLotadoReserve cedo

  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.

• Feriado

  Independence Day

  3–5 JulFeriado nacionalLotadoFechamentos

  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. Fonte ↗

  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. Fonte ↗

  Fall foliage

  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.
