Celebrate the end of summer the Midcoast Maine way, with fine food, water-borne gourds and some of the best pumpkin artwork you’ll ever see.
The small Maine town of Damariscotta is fairly sleepy for most of the year.
Need to know:
- Time: 10 days every October, but try and go on Regatta day!
- Effort: 1/10 (unless you want to try your hand at paddling a pumpkin!)
- Cost: Free, though bring money for delicious food
Have you ever wondered what a 1,000lb pumpkin that has been decorated to look like a racing car looks like as it sails down a river? π
