Bucksport Marina, Maine, United States

Maine is an American state located on the northeastern coast in the region known as New England. This state is situated next to the Canadian Border. Its neighbor is the state of New Hampshire and to the east, it is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean. Maine is a popular touristic attraction due to its large coastal region. Its vicinity to Canada also contributes to the extensive touristic activities in this area.

The territory nowadays occupied by Maine used to be inhabited by the Native American tribes known as the Wabanaki. The first encounter with the European civilization occurred rather early, in the 13th century through Norwegian groups who tried to establish a trading relationship with the native people. Later, in the 15th century, the French explorers managed to find the first European establishment in Maine.

Maine belonged to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts until the 19th century when it became independent and adhered to the Union.
