Glider rides on the coast of Maine. Enjoy the scenery as you float over the shores of Penobscot Bay. We will find thermal lift, ridge lift and often circle with eagles and hawks. The glider, a self launch Grob 109, allows us to get to the lift and then have fun wherever we find it. Rides are for one person at a time so the experience is always catered to you. Mild or wild, your choice!

Featuring a world-class, operating collection of antique ground vehicles, engines and aircraft the Owls Head Transportation Museum is open seven days a week, year-round. Exhibits include "Faster: The Quest for Speed" featuring racing vehicles from some of New England's premiere collections.
Surrounding a replica of Orville and Wilbur Wright's biplane is a stunning array of automobiles through the ages, all impeccably maintained. Antique cars, motorbikes, gypsy wagon, fire truck and more. You will be amazed. People come from all over the country to visit the museum. There is always an event of some kind which draws a crowd. The old planes fly in good weather, and if you're lucky you may even get a chance to take a ride. I can't say enough about it. Thanks OHTM!

Tour the Owls Head Lighthouse and Owls Head Transportation Museum.
This was the low-key, un-crowded beach we were looking for. Even on a warm saturday, there was plenty of room to spread out and be socially-distant. Kids loved the calm water and the sand. Adults enjoyed walking on the paths and climbing the rocks. We enjoyed lunch on picnic benches and everything was very clean and relaxing. Beautiful view.
