Things To Do
The Marginal Way
Beautiful cliff-side walk along the ocean!
Finestkind Inc
Captain Goat and his crew are awesome, and have lots of options for getting out onto the water! Take a sunset cruiser just outside of the cove or ask about their sailboat "Cricket" for something extra special!
Barnacle Billy's
Having a rum punch & steamers on the deck of Barnacle Billy's truly is a wonderful Ogunquit activity! We highly recommend for drinks, snacks & ambiance, then head to another suggested location for dinner, or take a stroll around Perkins Cove to explore.
Footbridge Lobster
If you're on the hunt for a Maine lobster roll while you're in town, this is the place! Chock full of fresh lobby meat- you can't go wrong.
Ogunquit Beach
There's loads of ways to enjoy Ogunquit Beaches, but here are our favorites: -if it's unseasonably warm, grab an inner tube and float down the river side! Or just roll up your pants at low tide to walk across the sandbars and explore (keep an eye on the tides, though!) -take a trolly up to the footbridge for picturesque sand dunes and then walk south back along the beach to the main lot - pack up a picnic at sunset and sit on the riverside to be both at the ocean & facing west- a combo that's not typical for the east coast!
The Front Porch Piano Bar & Restaurant
Head upstairs for the live piano bar for a very joyful and silly night. Pairs perfectly with martinis & apps!
Maine Street
Known as an LGBTQ+ bar, Maine Street always has something going on whether it's a drag show or karaoke. Or you can be like us and head straight to the pool tables for a couple of games!
Talking Threads Market
Some friends of ours own a vintage & repurposed goods store right in town! Wonderful people, clothes & vibes to check out
Cove Cafe
Our favorite spot for breakfast in town has to be Cove Cafe! At the very beginning of the courtship, Adam used to come visit me when I worked there and we would flirt over the smells of fresh coffee & blueberry pancakes. It will forever be special to us, plus, it's delicious!
Nikanos Mediterranean Bar & Grille
Great date night spot for dinner! Lovely wine list, ambiance & calamari. Often have life music on Saturdays, and sometimes brunch on Sundays!
Scoop Deck
Just up the road in Wells is Nell's favorite ice cream spot- The Scoop Deck! An endless amount of flavors & cute location. Plus, you know it's a fun spot when they offer free pickles with every ice cream order for expecting mamas!
Mount Agamenticus
If you're looking for an incredible view and short hike, Mt Agamenticus is perfect. On a clear day you can see all the way to Mt Washington, and the hike itself is very doable for all ages!
Flo's Hot Dogs
If you stop at Mt Agamenticus, be sure to pop into to Flos for lunch. Famous roadside hotdog shack that's as no-frills as it gets. Be sure to order quickly, and with no substitutions/modifications in order to stay on Gail's good side! We recommend the classic Flo dog paired with a can of Moxie for the full experience
Kittery Community Market
If you're looking for an activity on Sunday before the ceremony, our favorite local farmer's market is down in Kittery! Amazing vendors and vibes, often with some local live music. Take the scenic way back to Ogunquit all through Kittery Point and up Shore Road for a truly stunning coastal drive.
Chauncey Creek Lobster Pier
If you take the trip to Kittery, our favorite place for lobster is the al-fresco, no frills Chauncy Creek! It's right on the water and BYOB so stop at Golden Harvest of Pepperrell Cove to scoop a bottle of wine for your meal
Fort Foster
if you take the day trip to Kittery, make some time to stop at Fort Foster. It has a beautiful pier, playground for kiddos, and lots of rocky beach spaces to explore!
