Food scene
Love steamed hot dogs with homemade "special" relish or hate 'em - we love em around here. We wouldn't make a special trip during the summer for Flo's but definitely recommend including it in the agenda if you're going south to Ogunquit or York or beyond. Be careful since parking is right next to Route 1 which can be quite busy. And Flo's can be very busy but worth the wait!

This is our happy place. Over in Kennebunkport where you can grab some great food in a unique original atmosphere without the fried food. Not good for big groups but if you get there at the right time you may be able to snag one of the larger tables in back. Coming back to the Bridge House take Wildes District Road to Turbats Creek Road, which turns into Ocean Ave through Kennebunkport to spy on some wicked nice houses, The Bush compound at Walker Point, stop at St. Ann's Church and other wonderful scenery coming back through the port area.

Good for the little ones and adults alike. One of our local favorites for its beach and island vibe. The place can get busy and although it is in Ogunquit, it's actually on the outskirts so you don't have to battle traffic getting in and out of OGT. There's Liquid Dreams surf shop attached to the restaurant for good shopping while you wait for your table.

there is a "beach" at the end of Wells Harbor road on the river/inlet side behind the playground. This beach has been a favorite of the kids for jumping into the water as the tide is coming in and even at low tide searching for crabs and more.

City/town information
There are so many good places to visit in Ogunquit, from Perkins Cove, to OGT Beach, to Cornerstone Pizza, to La Pizzeria to Tree House .... so many restaurants and shopping. Heading down Route 1 and back to Kennebunk during busy times can take a long time so be prepared to spend the day or go at less busy times. The cliff walk is great as well stretching from OGT beach all the way to Perkins Cove and ending with a snack and beverage at one of the Perkins Cove restaurants
