A short drive from the house you can purchase fresh lobster caught that morning. The friendly staff can cook the lobsters for you or you could bring them home to cook. There is outdoor seating so you could enjoy your seafood while watching the lobster boats in the cove. Call ahead for closing times because dinner is not available late!

Entertainment & Activities

This is a really small aquarium but good for small kids. The location is beautiful, on the harbor in Boothbay with picnic tables along the ocean. The aquarium itself is only one room but has some cool fish, lobsters but the highlight is definitely the giant touch tank. Kids can hold starfish, clams and more! Be sure to head out to the fishing pier outside where there are some cool things for kids to do.
