Explore Ogunquit, rated #7 in Tripadvisor's Top 25 Beaches in the US (#1 best beach on the Atlantic Coast!) and by travelers in the top ten of Expedia's 20 of the Top Friendliest Cities in the US. Appropriately translated from the native Abenaki Indian language as "beautiful place by the sea," Ogunquit offers more than three long miles of pristine, sandy beach. Relax & sunbathe or play in the surf. Kayaking, standup paddleboarding, sailing and sightseeing cruises, and fishing charters are all easy to enjoy. Our perch on the loveliest part of the southern Maine coast is one attribute that makes your Ogunquit vacation special, but there is so much more in our four-season oceanside village. Traverse the world-renowned Marginal Way cliff walk from downtown to Perkins Cove, our working fishing village featuring dozens of oceanfront restaurants & one-of-a-kind boutiques and art galleries. Relish the cuisine offered by more than 50 restaurants, most within our town's four-square miles, and select from eclectic treasurers at our local independent shops. Immerse yourself in Ogunquit's role in American art, as well as local heritage at our museums. Savor our community's nightlife, from large scale Broadway musicals and plays to local live music & dancing. Spend your late nights at one of our welcoming lodging properties, ranging from spacious oceanfront resorts to cozy B&B's. We're proud of our tremendous sense of community, and the fact that our coastal village is a prime LGBTQ destination. Many of our businesses are gay-owned & operated. We are excited to welcome you and create unforgettable happy memories. See you in Ogunquit!
