Foodies will love this delicious gift store, demonstration kitchen and cafe. You can watch how they make jam by peeking through the viewing gallery windows and it's the perfect place to pick up souvenirs.

Wiggly Bridge

57 Barrell Ln Ext, York, ME 03909

Wiggly Bridge, earning its name from its wiggly-wobbly nature, is cited as the world's shortest suspension bridge. It's just 75 feet long and 5 feet wide and when walked upon, the deck bounces and flexes.

Boon Island Light

Boon Island, ME

Six miles off the shore of York, Maine, you'll find Boon Island. This rocky outcropping is home to New England's tallest lighthouse, Boon Island Light, which stands 133 foot tall and makes the tiny shoal identifiable for miles. Before it was built in 1855, Boon Island was notoriously dangerous for ships.

Paul Bunyan Head

It's unclear how the head of a Paul Bunyan statue got to the top of a tree near the York river in York, Maine. "He's always been there" is what locals have said.
