Rugosa Lobster Tours

This is a demonstration of lobster fishing and information about lobster biology, Maine lobster fisheries, commercial aspects of the fishery and last but not least, some local history. Fun for the whole family. The Rugosa is a real wooden lobster boat out on the Gulf of Maine and in terms of information shared by the tour guide, children must be at least 6 years. Very young children can be a distraction to the rest of the guests aboard the boat, enjoying the presentation. THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THE COVID-19 CRISIS, WE WILL BE TAKING ONLY 10 PEOPLE PER TRIP FOR SOCIAL DISTANCING AND WILL USE ALL PRECAUTIONS TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE.

I visited this little gem in the heart of downtown Kennebunkport I can't say enough good things about this shop. I was greeted by happy smiling faces the minute I walked in the door. The owners Nick and Deb we're so welcoming. They had wonderful suggestions on balsamics and oils to try and pair together. I also got some great ideas for recipes! They have some amazing gift baskets and beautiful gifts as well. I highly recommend this be one of your stops in this beautiful little town.

Gooch's Kennebunk Beach

Reviewed By Jgifas - Montvale, United States

We were two families of 4. You can buy parking through the app so you don’t have to track down passes. It was very convenient. The beach was lovely. Bigger waves were nice but the water was Cold. There was a surf class going on. We walked down a few beaches. All beautiful. Lots of room to throw a ball. Had a great day. Would go back.

My favorite beach here. I love to walk my dog and have him play with other dogs on the beach. And it's a great way to meet other people who are both visiting or live here.
