If pronouncing "Ogunquit" got you tongue-tied, then you'll be happy to learn this three and a half-mile stretch of the peninsula is considered to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the country. Rightfully so, "Ogunquit" means "beautiful place by the sea" in the local Abenaki language. At the end of a street filled with restaurants and local shops, the perfect sandy beach of Ogunquit greets visitors with seagulls and its dramatically changing tides. Known for its beauty, be prepared to arrive early if looking for a specific spot. Facilities: Restrooms, Parking
