Kennebunkport, Kennebunk Beach and Kennebunk There's far more to do in Kennebunkport than one could possibly do in one visit during the summer. Once in Kennebunkport’s magical seaside village, you'll discover why visitors return all year round to enjoy all seasons.
The Kennebunks offer arts, architecture, antiques, shopping, boating and much more. Both Kennebunk and Kennebunkport have historic districts steeped in local lore, and offer tours of the homes of sea captains and shipbuilders. Shoppers in search of unique gifts and treasures will find them in the shops and galleries of Dock Square, the Lower Village and downtown Kennebunk.
Visitors can see the area on bike, foot, by car or by trolley. Or explore the seas aboard a lobster boat, on a whale watch, a charter boat, a kayak or a canoe. You will not want to miss a drive around Ocean Avenue with its Blow Holes, seeping ocean vistas and view of President George Bush's Summer Home – Walker’s Point.
Then there is Cape Porpoise, a classic Maine fishing village with a stunning view of Goat Island Lighthouse. A couple miles further is the fabulous Goose Rocks Beach, truly one of the country's most extraordinary beaches.
Fall is the season for spectacular foliage and quiet walks along the beach.
