Tucked away on the shores of Linekin Bay, Smuggler’s Cove Inn is the ideal destination for anyone looking for a break from life. While our classic Maine waterfront resort is away from the hustle and bustle of town, adventure is still right around the corner. If you’re looking for a fun day outing, see what you can discover in downtown Boothbay Harbor.
What to Do and See in Downtown
While this region is known for being an outdoor lover’s paradise, it is also home to quaint towns filled with charming shops and local businesses. If you’re someone who loves exploring small towns, spend a day exploring the streets of downtown Boothbay Harbor on your next visit.
- Take your time wandering in and out of the shops that line the streets. We recommend popping into Sherman’s Maine Coast Book Shop for a new page-turner or stopping into Seawicks Candle Company for a candle that’s scent embodies Maine.
- If you’re looking for an incredible piece of art to remember your trip by, visit Ed Brown’s Wharfside Gallery or the Boothbay Region Art Foundation.
- Join countless other visitors who have made the walk across the historic footbridge. This structure was constructed way back in 1901 and connects the two sides of the harbor.
- Treat yourself to a sweet treat at Orne’s Candy Store. A Boothbay Harbor staple since 1885, this spot is filled with classic goodies, including fudge, gummy candies, chocolates, and more.
- Grab a bite to eat before heading “home” at one of the incredible restaurants found downtown. Try an authentic lobster roll at Shannon’s Unshelled or enjoy waterfront views at the Boathouse Bistro Tapas Bar & Restaurant.
