Kittery is a small town in Maine, directly across from the New Hampshire border, that features a number of outlet stores.
[edit] Get in
It's only about an hour away from Boston on I-95 (in good traffic, of course), or a more leisurely, scenic drive on Route 1. The outlet store district is on Route 1, a half-mile north of I-95 (take Exit 3 from the highway).
Beware toll roads in nearby New Hampshire. The highways leading to and from the New Hampshire coast get crowded during good beach weather.

- Kittery Outlets, [2]. Kittery has over 30 national major-brand clothing stores (including maternity, children's clothing, accessories, lingerie, and hosiery), over 20 shoe stores, and a reasonable selection of "active wear" and sports gear. There are over two dozen stores with housewares, plus a handful of miscellaneous outlets (candy, toys, jewelry) and services (fuel, restrooms, phones, banking, coffee, welcome center, etc.). edit
- Kittery Trading Post, 301 U.S. Route One, ☎ +1-888-KTP-MAINE (587-6246), [3]. Established in 1938, this store has three floors containing the largest selection of outdoor items in New England. edit
- Yankee Candle. Devoted candle fans will want to visit their Disneyland-like headquarters in Deerfield, Massachusetts (unfortunately at the other end of New England). edit
