Learn more about Wells
Forget the typical beach town clichés – Wells delivers coastal Maine at its most authentic. Wander the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge where salt marshes host more birds than people. The beaches here offer distinct personalities: Wells Beach for classic seaside energy, Drakes Island for quieter contemplation, and Moody Beach for long walks. Summer brings lobster rolls in unpretentious shacks where the focus remains on the seafood. Kayak through tidal estuaries or visit during low tide when beaches double in size. Antique shops along Route 1 provide rainy day entertainment. The town's 1643 founding makes it one of Maine's oldest settlements, though nobody seems particularly hung up about it.
