Summer: One of my favorite spots to visit in the summer is Ogunquit. This is the quintessential ocean front town with the small specialty shops, great oceanside resorts, seafood restaurants, a great beach and a gorgeous walking path that runs along the edge of the Atlantic. Ogunquit is also home to the Ogunquit Playhouse which has been providing visitors with some of the musicals and renown for “bringing Broadway to the beach” since 1933. A great way to enjoy the theater during your visit is to attend one of the Playhouses dinner and show nights. If you are looking for some great places to eat, I would recommend checking out Jackie’s Too. With amazing ocean views and wonderful food it is sure to be a hit with whoever is in your group. A walk from town to Perkins Cove is always a great way to explore some of the homes in the area. Once at Perkins Cove (the end of the road) you can pick up the Marginal Way walking path which winds along the rocky coastline and provides panoramic views of the ocean. Make sure you stop in at the candy shop in Perkins Cove before hitting the trail. They have a great collection of penny candy you can buy by the bag as well as ice cream and drinks. Perkins Cove is also home to the ever famous Barnacle Billy’s which is casual seafood dining right on the docks. Of course, you will want to spend a day on the beach and Ogunquit Beach has probably the whitest, softest sand in Southern Maine. Ogunquit is a hidden gem along Route One and definitely want to check out all this great little oceanside town has to offer.
