Marginal Way Details

Marginal Way is a beautifully paved walking trail following the coast of Ogunquit. Accessible to all ages, this is heavily trafficked but offers amazing views of the "margin" between the sea and land. People walk this trail to visit, fish, or even jump in the rocky waves. Ending in the small fishing village of Perkins Cove, walkers can visit the docking area to watch the fishermen that still actively work these choppy shores. The route is perfect for sightseers and locals alike.
