Husband and I are thinking of planning a trip end of July from Illinois to Maine. Looking at Jonesport area. Can anyone tell me what are the attractions nearby to this area? Restaurants? Places to get our fill of Lobster? Looking for romantic getaway.

You aren%26#39;t getting an answer on this because there isn%26#39;t much in Jonesport. The attraction seems to be getting away from it all or just standing on shore hoping for a whale to pass by. Don%26#39;t know of any restaurants, but there must one or two.

If by romantic you mean time alone to walk beaches, than Jonesport might work. Its a very small hardworking fishing/lobster port. I can%26#39;t think of the name, but there is a family restaurant that serves seafood. Finding lobster is not a problem either, but to the best of my knowledge there are not any ';fine dining'; places in the city. I also remember a pizza place.
Pretty much the same things you%26#39;ll find in most of the coastal towns in Washington County.
I used to joke that the excitement ends at Bar Harbor when coming up the coast, but so do the majority of the tourists.
If you are looking for a quiet time to wander around than it might work. If you are looking for lots of ';attractions'; you might want to consider Bar Harbor or Acadia.
If Jonesport does interest you, you might want to do research on Machias/Roques Bluffs, Lubec/Campobello or Eastport as well. They are all somewhat comparable towns as far as scenery and each offers their own attractions and things to see/do.
