Due to the nature of the topic and the wide range of information available, in order to cover only a tiny bit of it properly, some of the websites included here may have a commercial element in addition to the excellent information they provide. Such inclusion does not constitute an endorsement of product or service by archaeolink.com. Sites are included for information value only.

The number of sites available online for this topic is enormous. This site can not and does not index all travel resources for a state. These "tourism" pages are basically designed as a supplement to the State by State Social Studies pages.

For those of you for whom this "supplementary" material is not enough, the following does provide some idea of what is available online and will hopefully be a good starting point for a more serious search.

Back to Maine Social Studies where you will find additional material including history, colleges and universities, capital city profile, lesson plans, state government and more.

Acadia NP Travel Guide | Fodor's Online __ "With some of the most dramatic and varied scenery on the Maine Coast, Mount Desert Island attracts more than 2 million visitors each year and has been a popular summer destination for more than a century. The island, much of which belongs to Acadia National Park, measures approximately 12 mi long and 9 mi across. Samuel de Champlain, the first European explorer to discover the area, named the island the "Isle de Monts Desert." Today Mount Desert Island (often pronounced "dessert") is Maine's most popular tourist attraction."
