Ogunquit is a classic Maine beachfront town, with miles of sandy beaches, numerous oceanfront dining and no shortage of gift shops in town or on the Marginal Way. The Marginal Way is a three-mile pedestrian walkway along the rocky coast connecting Ogunquit village to Perkins Cove. It is a beautiful walk with benches, beach areas, rocky cliffs and old homes homes with water views. The Algonquin Indians named the area Ogunquit, which means “Beautiful Place by the Sea.” I was fortunate to walk Marginal Way during sunrise, and it did not disappoint.
Here is what caught my eye, I hope you enjoy!
