34. Hermit Island, ME

Hermit Island is the ideal place to really get away. It is basically an island campground that offers more privacy than your average vacation. Although it has about 275 campsites, each one is managed so that it stays isolated from the others. You can only reach the island by car when the tide is not coming in. Once it comes, the roadway is covered by water, and the campgrounds truly become an island.Take the time during the day to canoe, kayak, fish, eat lobster, or just walk around. The green areas and mossy forests are worth checking out on the interior, and the ocean bluffs are amazing. Make sure you watch your step... and as you do, you might find it worthwhile to really peer down into the cracks between each rock and the small puddles that fill small holes. You'll see plants and small fish and crustaceans that you never would have known existed. If your legs get tired, just go relax on one of the many secluded beaches along the shore. If the sun is beating down a little too hard, jump in the water to cool off... depending on the time of year, the water may be frigid. Your heart will jump, your lungs will freeze, and your wang will almost disappear.
