Old Orchard Beach Information

Old Orchard Beach, Maine is a beautiful and historic town located in York County that was founded on February 20th, 1883. Old Orchard is a great summer getaway weekend with lovely, sandy beaches and a beautiful pier. The city also has many activates for all ages.

On the pier you can enjoy shopping, eating, and playing games during summer days. At at night, have fun dancing, attending live concerts, or watching the whales and birds on a tour. If you are traveling with children, spend time on the waterfront at the Palace Playland Park, a hot spot for the whole family with over 25 rides. During peak season, rides open at 11am on Saturday and on Sunday, and weekdays at noon. The park stays open based on weather and attendance, usually until around 10pm. Make sure not to miss the special firework show, which takes place is every Thursday night at 9:45pm. Travelers may also enjoy the golf course near the waterfront. The Dungrass Golf Club near the beach is a great place to step away from tourist activities to relax. Kids are also allowed to play 18 holes and adults can play golf on a much larger course.

The Scarborough Marsh Audubon Center is a great day trip, especially for anyone interested in digging for clams! The center serves as a fantastic classroom for children, laboratory for biologists, and prime territory for fishermen and hunters. This is an ideal place for people of all ages to learn all about marine animals and conservation. If you are interested in seeing more wildlife, kayaks and canoes are available for rent, and guided tours are offered. This is a great family day trip that is a short drive from the beach. Another fun day trip is taking a trip to Portland, 15 miles to the north. With amazing food, outdoors adventures, museums and historic sites, you may want to spend a few nights there.
