for a beachside spread. Bring your gear and do a little surf casting for stripers or
just plan on catching a few midday winks if you prefer.
The Maine Beaches are rich in the traditions of venerable seaside communities,
distinctive lighthouses, and popular amenities. Stroll our boardwalks, clustered
with ice cream stands and seafood shacks. In some spots, you’ll find spectacular
oceanfront amusement parks that have brought fun to generations of families,
whether it’s wooden roller coasters, featured creatures, or water park fun!
Pull up a beach chair and join the panorama of brightly colored umbrellas. Many local
beaches, Ogunquit, Kennebunkport, Kennebunk, Wells, and Old Orchard Beach,
now offer beach wheelchairs that will help people with special needs not only get
to the beach but enjoy the waves as well. Stay through the evening for spectacular
sunsets or rise early for yoga in tune with an unforgettable sunrise. Then dive into
water, water everywhere. For surfers, head for our waters year-round, but only
with a full wet suit and a sense of adventure. With plenty of parking, we’re an easy
getaway and a leisurely stroll into coastal villages rooted in culture, great eats,
lodging, and fun.
