Hi. My husband and I are planning on taking a road trip to New England next summer. We both love the beach. Is it really warm enough along the coast of Maine to swim or is it best just to sunbathe? Also, what are the best beaches. We don%26#39;t want anything too crowded but would like it to be somewhere where there is plenty to do during the day.
Beaches in June
Err...the water in Maine is cold. Very cold. The temperature will vary dependinng on where the Gulf current is. I was swimming at Old Orchard Beach last summer in 95 degree weather and we were the only ones in water above the ankle. With that said, it%26#39;s certainly swimmable (heck, we did it, and I%26#39;m not terribly warm-blooded). You probably want to stay in southern Maine for the warmest water, but a lot of those (Old Orchard Beach, Wells Beach) will be very crowded, especially on the weekend. I%26#39;m sure other folks will chime in with their favorite beaches...
