Coastal New England offers some of the most incredible scenery and sights you can discover in the Northeastern US.  The word Ogunquit in the Abenaki language translates to, “a beautiful place by the sea” when you visit this unique town you will understand for yourself why.  Ogunquit has always welcomed visits from creative professionals, such as artists, photographers, fishermen and sailors inspired by the stunning landscape.  Among several highlights you’ll want to visit is Perkins Cove, a 3 mile barrier of sand and dunes, connected to the mainland by the most photographed drawbridge in Maine.  Stroll along the 1.25 mile paved walkway, known as the Marginal Way, being sure to stop and smell the delightful roses while relaxing on any of their 30 memorial benches along the route way.  We will make stops at several inspiring locations  along the coast including Kennebunkport, Nubble Lighthouse, and finally Salem, MA.  Join us to discover all that coastal New England has to offer!
