Food Scene

Amazing food! Everything from burgers to steaks to weinersnitchel. Excellent beer and wine list. Sometimes they have live music on the first floor. In the summer they have a fantastic roof deck that overlooks the harbor.

Right on the water with great views. Watch the lobsters being hauled right off the boat. Great for kids who can spend hours by the lobster tank (ours does!).Plenty of places to sit inside and out. Live music on the weekends.

Part restaurant/ part bar. Good for families during the day. The menu is pretty diverse and includes sushi. Excellent drink menu and live music venue in the evenings. Has a nice wrap around porch situated over the water on the second floor.

Great family owned bakery. Their baked goods sell out fast so get their early! They also serve lattes, coffees and smoothies along with locally produced artisan goods.

A short drive from Boothbay Harbor. Reid State Park is a public recreation area overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on Georgetown Island, Sagadahoc County, Maine. The 770-acre park is noted for its sandy beaches and sand dunes—both rare in the state of Maine—plus its rocky tidepools, salt marshes, and tidal lagoon. Ocean swimming is offered at Mile Beach and Half Mile Beach, while warmer waters are found at a tidal inlet, The Lagoon, where the quieter waters tend to be 10 to 15 degrees warmer. The park also has picnicking areas, fishing, and hiking trails.

Are there any bad trails in Boothbay?! I don't think so. This one starts with a nice walk through the woods and pops out to an inlet where my daughter decided to go swimming. Like every other hike I've gone on in Boothbay, it's beautiful.

A boat ride is always nice. Drinks are always appreciated. But what makes this tour so much better than any other tour I've ever take are all the PUFFINS! So many cute little PUFFINS! Man, I love me some puffins!

Art

Marie and I love modern art (as you can see in our cabin) and we've purchased more than a couple pieces from Gleason's. They are great and right downtown.
