This is a small restaurant down on the boat launch. They have some outdoor seating. Inside they have a fun bar made out of an old boat. You can watch fishermen coming in and out of the point and walk down on the water yourself. Great place to look for birds and about a 20 minute scenic walk from our place. Open seasonally.

Drinks & Nightlife

The Old Port in Portland is a collection of shops and restaurants by the water. It has plenty of places to grab a meal or a drink. Lots of bar options. We love the cobblestone streets and old brick buildings.
