Camden: Discover Hidden Beaches, Great Places To Eat & Fun Things To Do

Summer: Camden is such a great place to spend time and one of my favorite things to do is to enjoy the sights and sounds of the harbor is sitting on the deck of the Waterfront Restaurant. Located in the heart of town on Bayview Drive you can find the Waterfront tucked between quaint shops and swanky condos. The whole front of the restaurant is literally a dock with awnings and great views of all the boats coming in and out of the harbor. Another great place to check out while you are in town is to spend some time on Lait Beach just down the road from the Waterfront. This is a quiet beach that you could almost miss if you didn’t know it was there. With a swing set and a couple of picnic tables on a grassy hill leading down to a small beach this is the best spot to watch the yachts entering Camden’s busy harbor. Most people don’t know about this beach so it’s never crowded and is a great place to relax from the bustle of town. If you are looking for a way to enjoy the water without going for a swim than you should take a harbor to harbor sea kayaking tour from Camden Harbor to Rockport Harbor. You will paddle past Curtis Island with its own working lighthouse, Indian Island, Beauchamp Point straight into beautiful Rockport Harbor. Round trip the paddle takes approximately 3.5 hours and is full of beautiful scenery and surprises like seals and other sea life along the way. This trip is also a great way to enjoy all the amazing homes that line the rocky coastline of Camden and Rockport. With so many things to do, Camden will become one of your regular stops when you are in the mid-coast area.
