Camden, Maine

Camden, Maine

Mount Battie and Camden Hills State Park, and Camden downtown


A stunningly amazing view from the top of Mount Battie. You can either drive or hike up Mount Battie to see its views. Supposedly, you can see Rockland, Rockport, Camden, Isleboro, Vinalhaven, and Isle au Haut from here when the weather is clear. No matter what you see, it's a view that you won't soon forget.

The view makes quite an impressive backdrop for taking pictures.

There's a stone tower you can climb, which is quite fun. It is much cooler up there, and the views are still better.

The steps that you climb to get to the top of the tower. Very cool!

The view at the top of the tower is amazing and provides a great backdrop for pictures. Plus, it's just fun to sit up there with the breeze in your hair and admire everything around you. It's a calming feeling.

The town boat landing. No shortage of interesting boats to see here!

A colorful whiteboard full of events going on in the area and surrounding towns. As you can see, no shortage of activities, either.

Some of the many boats that dot Camden's landscape.

One of my favorite things about Camden is there's a waterfall right in the middle of town! Now, how often do you see that?

I absolutely love this shirt! Peace, Love and Lobstah - what more do you need? This shirt says "Maine" more than any t-shirt I can recall seeing in recent memory.

A statue of a puffin outside one of the downtown stores. At least, I'm pretty sure it's a puffin. Puffins are very common in Maine, especially mid-coast Maine.

A statue commemorating the Maine black bear.

This concludes our tour of Camden. Be sure to come and visit to see some more!
