Chambers of Commerce
On Rt 1, in the boxcar, you will find the Machias Bay Area Chamber of Commerce office. They have brochures for all of the wonderful things you can see and do in the area. It’s worth a visit there to get ideas, brochures, ferry timetables, etc., since there is so much to do here, its impossible to list everything. You can call them at (207) 255-4402.
