    It's definitely the best walking video out there. Great job.

    You have done a MAGNIFICENT job in the making of this video walking tour of Ogunquitt, Maine!!! I felt like I was right there beside you the entire way! I actually started crying about mid way through Marginal Way. The beauty just went straight to my core. I noticed that birds were constantly singing throughout this walking tour. Can the birds always be heard singing their sweet melodies that much? It was absolutely heavenly sounding. My husband and I are planning a trip to Maine in the next few years and we will have our beloved cavalier king charles spaniel with us. It is good to know that fur babies can walk Marginal Way during a specified time of year. Again, I just had to tell you what a wonderful job you did on this video. I feel like I have already been there, even though we WILL be visiting Ogunquitt in person, hopefully VERY soon. THANK,YOU, AGAIN!!!! 💖🤗💐🥰

      There were extra birds that day and those are the real sounds of the birds! Thank you for the kind comment. I hope you have a great trip when you visit.

    This may be the finest walking tour video we have seen. Features such as the occasional verbal comments, the steady camera, and the titles at the bottom, really make it special. With the pandemic in the world, and with distance and age, my wife and I don’t get around so much. But we now we loved seeing this place and would like to see even more. Thank you.

    Ogunquit is just so pretty. A friend and I went down twice from Montreal. We tented just north in Wells. Don't remember if it was in Ocean View. Very clean.

    Your video is amazing . My daughter and son -in-law are there this week . She has sent many beautiful pictures of places I now see in your video. It seems like a special place to visit and also live . I love hearing the wind chimes in the background . It looks so peaceful .

    Thanks for the great video and the great memories. We vacationed in Perkin's Cove and stayed at The Riverside Motel for 12 years in a row. Unfortunately, we haven't been back since 2018 so seeing all the familiar places was certainly a treat!! Thanks again!!

      Thanks. Yes, it does seem that perhaps covid twisted time for all of us. Yesterday I went to a pool I meant to visit before covid and it felt quite odd to be there and wonder what happened to those years in between my plan and the reality! I hope you eventually make it back to Ogunquit again someday. It will still be good.

    Next door to that place, same side, was a restaurant called Compass Rose, and then across the street on that shop portion, was a Thai Restaurant called, Blue Elephant. Epic food!

    I went to Ogunquit and Kennebunkport last month from Texas as a tourist. I loved it. The locals told me not to move there until I had spent at least one whole winter. Winter must be brutal.

      If I survived a summer in Dallas, you could surely survive a winter in Maine! It all depends on your perspective. Some people hate being cold. Some people wilt in the heat.

      It's such a cool beach area due to the tide amount of land you can walk around on. It must be unique for the fish as well to have those areas of shallow water mixing with the waves.

      Usually I park at the Perkins Cove area which has pay meters by the hour. Also there is another pay lot just up the road from Perkins Cove with an attendant. Parking is absolutely a challenge since the main beach area charges around 20 bucks to park!

Between Memorial Day-Labor Day ----- thanks to the town selling its soul to the Devil and erecting "hotels" everywhere where once stood trees, grass and fresh air ... 03:02 top left of screen: sterile white civilian barracks, excuse me, "motels" ... destroying the one-time charm of Perkins Cove ----- it's "Masshole Central."

      It is so hard to keep things just right. There are towns that seem sad because they don't have enough to keep them afloat. Then there are towns that are charming and become overdeveloped because so many people wish they could have that charm.

      @@RachelWhelton 09/07/24: I salute your compassion, which I feel has been lent to an undeserving cause. Ogunquit --- already a affluent Boston suburb and obviously in no need to compromise its soul --- today is a best-selling Halloween mask, relentlessly paved over by grotesque human greed. ----- I suspect the trend got a good push from the inexplicable decision decades ago to slaughter the rows of beautiful trees lining Route One as one entered the town from the south. ----- The most visible symbol of the town's vile moral rot is this: --- Hal and Marge Laurent for years ran a modest B&B in the large white house, now known as 14 Harbor Lane, which at one time was the only building at the end of Perkins Cove.---- That same real estate today house SEVEN residences, 14 Harbor Lane and six additional ghastly residential structures created by contagious commercial avarice.
