🇺🇸 Boston Life | A Healing Day Trip to Ogunquit, Maine 🌊
"🚗 Escape plan for Boston workers—success! 11:30 AM depart → 1:30 PM arrive in town Only $150/person for a resort-like experience! Here’s the foolproof itinerary: 🅿️ Parking Tips: Navigate to Perkins Cove Parking Lot (town entrance) – $30/day (prices went up 😭). After 5 PM: Still $25 (night owls, go for it!). Further in: Public lot ($6/hour, tiny + often full) + private lots ($35/day). ⚠️ Weekends = chaos! Avoid inner streets—just park at Perkins Cove. 🦞 Lunch at Barnacle Billy’s: 20-min wait for outdoor seats ⏳—worth it! Buttered lobster roll + creamy clam chowder with harbor views 🏞️. Behind it: Instagrammable arch garden 🌺 (copy the shot in Fig 3!). Footbridge Lobster was too small (no dine-in), so we stuck with Billy’s. 🌊 Marginal Way Cliff Walk: 5-min walk from restaurant 🚶♂️. Entrance is behind Barnacle’s parking lot (a bit hidden!). Epic views of waves crashing against rocks + wild flowers 📸. We didn’t finish the trail—headed to… ⛱️ Nubble Lighthouse at Sunset: Drive to Cape Neddick Lighthouse ("Nubble Lighthouse") 🗼. Sunset here = pure romance 😭🌅. 💡 Tips: ✅ Perfect day trip from Boston (or come multiple times!). ✅ Ocean winds are strong—bring a jacket even in summer! ✅ Check sunset time in advance—see the lighthouse then drive back for dinner in Boston. 📌 Cost Breakdown: Parking $30 + Lunch $85 + Gas $20 ≈ $135/person #BostonLife #MaineDayTrip #NewEnglandTravel #LobsterLover #CoastalVibes #WeekendGetaway
