Ogunquit

Living up to its name, which translates into "beautiful place by the sea", Ogunquit offers much in the way of oceanside exploration and beachside idyll. While its shimmering sandy stretches have rendered it a favorite with beachgoers, the town is also replete with historical splendor, its cultural appeal accentuated by the presence of landmarks such as the Ogunquit Museum of American Art and the Ogunquit Heritage Museum. Strolling along the town's picturesque harbor or embarking on tours of its downtown area are ideal ways to spend the day acclimatizing yourself to Ogunquit's timeless charm. Traverse Marginal Way and discover all the quaint gems stippled along the path, or frolic on sun-dappled sands as you soak in the surrounding views. To replenish your energy, drop in at any one of the eateries comprising the town's culinary landscape or pick from an array of accommodation options to spend a leisurely weekend amid comfortable confines.
