• Grab some sun! Head to Gooch’s, Gooserocks, and Parson’s Beach and enjoy a quintessential New England beach day (just be sure to check the tides!)
• Explore the coast of Maine. Grab a boat, kayak, or canoe rental from Kennebunkport Marina and keep your eye out for seals.
• Cruise around town. Many of the local hotels have bikes available for guests. Cycle into the port and grab a bite, or ‘take the scenic route’ and swing by the Bush Compound for breathtaking views.

Sure, Yelp is great, but check out Aisling and Joel’s recommendations below for a local opinion. If you’ve got a car and don’t mind the drive, head up to Portland for award-winning restaurants on every corner.

• Live Cafe – a new, much-loved spot for smoothies, sandwiches, and everything in between
• Fia Fia – smoothies, acai bowls, and toasts
• Mike’s All Day Breakfast – a town staple for full belly breakfast

LUNCH

• The Clam Shack – don’t miss their award-winning lobster roll
• Pedro’s – can’t miss spot for chips, guac, and cocktails
