Welcome to Portland, a historic seacoast city set on a peninsula extending into Casco Bay. Explore one-of-a-kind shops and award-winning restaurants along the working waterfront in the Old Port, step into a speakeasy in Portland’s historic West End, visit one of the many galleries in the Art’s District, or appreciate spectacular views of Casco Bay and the surrounding Islands from the Eastern Promenade on the East End. The beauty of the gem of a little city is that you can walk, bike or grab a quick ride to all of these activities as the distance between the East End and the West End of Portland is only 2.1 miles.
