“Maine has an allure all its own. It fosters a special connection with those who have visited and those who live and work here,” said Carolann Ouellette, director of the Maine Office of Tourism. 

Ouellette added, “The word is getting out about what makes Maine special, from the beauty of our diverse landscape and coastline, with access to amazing outdoor adventure experiences, to the explosive growth of our “locavore” food and beverage scene, our friendly people, and the quality of Maine’s lodging and cultural offerings.” 

According to Fodor’s, the Go List destinations span six continents and 20 countries, and are chosen by the experts at Fodor’s Travel who log countless miles traveling across the globe each year. The 2016 list incorporates everything from emerging destinations and new hotspots to noteworthy events and great travel values around the world.
