Searsport is a pretty coastal town with a wealth of maritime history to uncover. The first stop on most visitors’ itinerary is the Penobscot Maritime Museum which tells the story of the town’s historic past. Once you have an idea about the good old days in Searsport it is time to explore the many outdoor recreational activities on offer. You can take a trip across the causeway to Sears Island for a day of beachcombing and hiking or head to Moose Point State Park or Mosman Park for a picnic overlooking the ocean. If you enjoy antiquing you can spend a few productive hours at the Treasures and Trash Barn.
