Belfast, ME


Experience the Belfast waterfront by foot and stroll along the harbor along the Harbor Walk, resting at the comfy Adirondack chairs before continuing over the Belfast Harbor Footbridge. The best way to see it all is to take one of the walking tours of Belfast's historic district or the self-guided Museum in the Streets. This heritage-discovery tour features 2 large maps and 30 panels of photographs and interpretive text describing historic houses, the downtown, the waterfront and a few of the town's best-known residents.
Be sure to visit the eclectic collection of galleries and artist studios in Belfast's historic downtown. Work up an appetite? Locals are all abuzz about Satori, a 32-seat restaurant located in the historic "Gothic Building." With hand-rolled sushi and a variety of Japanese kitchen foods, they are also on top with a craft cocktail program created by an award-winning bartender.
