Outstanding Shopping Arrangements

While nature is at the core, hospitality is the rule of the day. Here you'll find access to island ferries, comfortable accommodations, outstanding restaurants and galleries, first-class museums, and the retail center for the Mid-Coast region of Maine. The presence of the past still graces Rockland's Main Street, a designated Historic District. Rockland is home to more windjammers than any other port in the U.S. Shipbuilding, commercial fishing, granite quarrying and lime kilns represent a major part of our area's economic history and have left their mark upon the city.

This is the Lobster Capital of the World. Thousands of lobsters are shipped from here each year. Our world famous Maine Lobster Festival, now in its 59th year, takes place in early August.
