Free time for lunch and exploring at the Old Port….many great shops, galleries, & innovative restaurants line cobblestone streets before returning to Ogunquit. Tonight it’s off to FOSTER’S DOWNEAST CLAMBAKE to dig into their prize-winning chowder, mussels, lobster, corn, potatoes, onions, rolls, and fresh Maine Blueberry Crumb Cake!
Day 3
This morning we board the Victorian style M/V Thomas Laighton for a 2 1/2 hour ISLES OF SHOALS CRUISE. Experience the fascinating legends of the New Hampshire & Maine Seacoast. Little known but historically crucial, the legendary Isles of Shoals, located 9 miles off the coast, are an intriguing archipelago of 9 islands steeped with history.
