Everyone LOVES lobster... try some Maine shellfish caught fresh this morning!
Whether you’re looking for a delectable variety of gourmet dishes, or a coastal Maine seafood dinner; a spicy mix of ethnic cuisine, or just a spot to pick up sandwiches for a picnic on the granite cliffs, Southwest Harbor has a variety of options for any palate.
The craft of successfully harvesting lobster out of the cold, clear waters off the rocky coast of Maine, has been passed down from generation to generation. Not much has changed since the 1800’s. |
|
Individual traps are baited, placed on the ocean floor, pulled out one by one and rebaited. In 2002, more than 63,625,000 pounds of lobster were landed in Maine – a catch worth almost $211,000,000.
Have you tried a new dish recently? In Maine the Downeast cooking is a special delicacy all by itself. Please be sure to try a Maine lobster while you are visiting our beautiful island, but don’t forget to try some of our other famous dishes... shrimp, crabcakes, or something totally new and delectable. The locals are proud of their home-cookin’, so opt for a real meal at one of the great restaurants featured in the Port Directory. |
