13 Reasons Why You Have To Visit Ogunquit Maine This Summer
Jillian Caillouette

Ogunquit is located on the southern tip of Maine between York and Wells. It's gorgeous beaches, out of this world restaurants and peaceful atmosphere, make it a place you have to consider visiting at some point in time. My family and I visit Ogunquit every single year. I hope this article inspires you to do the same!

1. The Beach

The beach is magnificent, with smooth sand and gentle waves crashing along the shore. Spending your days at the beach is the best idea.

2. The Marginal Way

A mile-long strip of picturesque oceanfront property, lined with fragrant pink and white sea roses and hidden coves. Take a walk or run along the beautiful blue sea and explore.

3. The Ogunquit Playhouse

It is one of my biggest dreams to perform at this playhouse. I highly recommend planning to see a show while you're in Ogunquit. It's Broadway! This summer check out Million Dollar Quartet, Anything Goes, Priscilla Queen Of The Desert and a brand new musical The Hunchback Of Notre Dame!!!

4. Perkins Cove

This central spot in Ogunquit is filled with cute little boutiques, a pottery store and the famous restaurant Barnacle Billy's.

5. The Trollies

Dolly, Polly, Lolly, Molly, Wally, and Rolly cruise around town. Hopping onto one of these trollies is always a great time.

6. The Ogunquit Museum Of American Art

If you are an artist or simply a lover of art, this museum is a must see for you. It's right on the ocean!

7. The Resorts

There are many places to stay in Ogunquit. No matter where you stay you are only a walk away from the beach. My family loves The Sparhawk and The Anchorage.

8. The Shopping

Who does't love to shop? There are exquisite shops in the center of town, in Perkins Cove and all the way down to the beach. If you want something sweet while you're shopping, check out Harbor Candy Shop!

9. The Atmosphere

It's nice to get away for a while and reconnect to your most joyous and true self. Ogunquit has always been a place that brings me back to my roots.

10. The Food

Hold on! This needs to be broken down into separate sections.

11. Breakfast

I adore breakfast. There is something so special about the morning time. Check out these restaurants for the best breakfast in town!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
