Maine South Coast, Casco Bay
Freeport Maine, Shopping, Nature, Transportation Museums
Freeport Maine, is not just
about Shopping.
Casco Bay and its woodland
parks and shore might not
be first on your mind when
you enter Freeport and its
dazzling outlet malls and
all-night shopping but
nearby there are Nature
Preserves, Hiking Trails,
Museums,
and Lobster Villages just a
short drive from Route One
on the South Coast of Maine
Freeport Maine offers some natural wonders along with its outlet malls. While some family
members shop, others could head out on Wolfes Neck Road to the Wolfes Neck Woods State Park for
a walk on the miles of nature trails along the shore of Casco Bay. Twelve miles South of Freeport, the
coast of Maine offers diverse attractions that include lighthouses, art museums, and a steam train
museum at Portland.

Casco Bay and its woodland parks and shore might not be on your mind when you visit Freeport for its
outlet malls and its LL bean all-night shopping.
Renowned outfitter, L.L. Bean, open 24 hours, has been the anchor store and Freeport's claim to fame
for more than 50 years. Shopping is the lure that brings most visitors to Freeport and its dozens of
outlet stores and specialty shops two hours north of Boston. There is a natural side to Freeport,
however, the area has miles of coastal shoreline, acres of nature preserves on the edge of Casco Bay,
and several estuarine parks that preserve Maine's natural beauty.
Twenty minutes north of Portland Maine on Route One, Freeport's shops become a friendly anchorage
for travelers cruising the coastal highway. Huge parking lots and all night shopping break the spell of
Maine's solitary lobster villages and pine-covered coast. There is a whole lot more than shopping on
the mid-Maine coast, however; nature preserves, shore-line camping, and museums dedicated to art,
to natural history, and to transportation that can offer something for each member of the family.
