13 Reasons Why You Have To Visit Ogunquit Maine This Summer
Jillian Caillouette

Ogunquit is located on the southern tip of Maine between York and Wells. It's gorgeous beaches, out of this world restaurants and peaceful atmosphere, make it a place you have to consider visiting at some point in time. My family and I visit Ogunquit every single year. I hope this article inspires you to do the same!

1. The Beach

The beach is magnificent, with smooth sand and gentle waves crashing along the shore. Spending your days at the beach is the best idea.

2. The Marginal Way

A mile-long strip of picturesque oceanfront property, lined with fragrant pink and white sea roses and hidden coves. Take a walk or run along the beautiful blue sea and explore.

3. The Ogunquit Playhouse

It is one of my biggest dreams to perform at this playhouse. I highly recommend planning to see a show while you're in Ogunquit. It's Broadway! This summer check out Million Dollar Quartet, Anything Goes, Priscilla Queen Of The Desert and a brand new musical The Hunchback Of Notre Dame!!!

4. Perkins Cove

This central spot in Ogunquit is filled with cute little boutiques, a pottery store and the famous restaurant Barnacle Billy's.

5. The Trollies

Dolly, Polly, Lolly, Molly, Wally, and Rolly cruise around town. Hopping onto one of these trollies is always a great time.

6. The Ogunquit Museum Of American Art

If you are an artist or simply a lover of art, this museum is a must see for you. It's right on the ocean!

7. The Resorts

There are many places to stay in Ogunquit. No matter where you stay you are only a walk away from the beach. My family loves The Sparhawk and The Anchorage.

8. The Shopping

Who does't love to shop? There are exquisite shops in the center of town, in Perkins Cove and all the way down to the beach. If you want something sweet while you're shopping, check out Harbor Candy Shop!

9. The Atmosphere

It's nice to get away for a while and reconnect to your most joyous and true self. Ogunquit has always been a place that brings me back to my roots.

10. The Food

Hold on! This needs to be broken down into separate sections.

11. Breakfast

I adore breakfast. There is something so special about the morning time. Check out these restaurants for the best breakfast in town!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
