Now, naturally some of the finest sunsets that I have witnessed have been along the Pacific Ocean&#8211;particularly at Olympic National Park. Pick a dry spell at this rainy coast and be delighted with a fiery red horizon come late evening. Recently, I got to experience an amazing sunset along the Atlantic Ocean-and it wasn&#8217;t from Florida&#8217;s west coast across the Gulf of Mexico. No, it was in the Gulf of Maine. You see, much of Maine coastline hugs the Atlantic from a northern angle. The Ice Age glaciers carved out plenty of inlets and coves and left behind a myriad of islands and peninsulas with lots of western coastal frontage. And due to the state&#8217;s northern latitudes, the sun sets well to the south in early winter allowing for some spectacular Atlantic coastal sunsets! So, consider a trip to the North Atlantic for a stunning coastal sunset! Where have you witnessed your favorite winter sunsets?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I absolutely love winter sunsets&#8211;and there&#8217;s no better place to experience them than at the ocean.
