– old orchard beach, maine –
another picturesque boardwalk & beach town to visit in maine is old orchard beach, which is just north of kennebunkport and york beach. there’s lots of kitchy places to explore along the boardwalk and pier; from clam shacks & pier fries to awesome souvenir and gelato/ice cream shops. the old wooden pier is really awesome as well, although it was raining during our visit so i didn’t get photos.
there is also an old fashioned beach amusement park called palace playland. it’s been open since 1902 and looks reminiscent of coney island!
we’d love to stay at a bed & breakfast or a beach cottage in old orchard beach some day!
