While there are so many amazing places to honeymoon in Maine, we already live here—so where else do we want to go the most?

Listen, Maine is weird—Mainers are weird. We live in a place called 'Vacationland,' but for those of us who actually live here, most days feel a lot more like work than vacation.

With that in mind, how do we know where we, as Mainers, most want to honeymoon? Was there a survey taken that we somehow missed?

The article ‘Favorite Honeymoon Spots for Each US State’ on Chris Cruises is based on research by Honeymoon Always, which analyzed Google Trends data to determine the most-searched-for honeymoon destinations in each state. Dan Bagby of Honeymoon Always noted that while some destinations are widely searched, not everyone follows through due to factors like cost and travel time.
