Things to do in Ocean Park, Maine.

A quieter southern stretch of the seven-mile Old Orchard sand, an easy walk to the pier or Pine Point, the Eastern Trail right behind the village, and quick kayak access to Goosefare Brook and the Scarborough Marsh.

Ocean Park is the quiet, cottage-lined village at the south end of Old Orchard Beach — founded in 1881 as a Chautauqua-style summer assembly and still anchored by the Temple, the bandshell, and a calendar of summer concerts and lectures. No pier, no arcades — just a wide stretch of sand, walkable streets, and porches.
