Vinalhaven Island
This is an amazing boat ride to a beautiful island
No trip to Portland would be complete without a ferry to one of the islands - Peaks (rent bikes or golf cart and tour island, bring picnic lunch) or Chebeague (same)? or the mail boat where you stop at several islands. Incredible value!
