if you want the true Maine seafood experience, stop by The Lobster Shack. Sit at picnic tables overlooking the rocky coast — there’s nothing better!

Eclectic would be an understated way to describe this Bayside institution. By far the best place to go dancing! Every Saturday is 80s night. Show up dressed in 80s attire and get in free. Check their website (http://bubbassulkylounge.com) for other special events and theme nights.

Only Trader Joes in the state. Saturday gets a bit busy and with the tiny carts it can be a bit much. Always great foods at great prices.

Parks & Nature

This is a nice small beach that has a fort, and beautiful views. A favorite for families, there is a playground, snack shack, public restrooms and parking.

Entertainment & Activities

View Casco Bay Islands and the Portland skyline from a ferry ride! You don’t even need a destination. Our favorite is the Mailboat Run. It’s a three-hour ride around Casco Bay. You’ll see so many beautiful islands and get a real sense of the area. Pack drinks and snacks (and a sweatshirt!) and just cruise.

Live music every weekend. Bocce, skeeball and, of course, bowling. Plan to spend some time waiting for a lane on a winter weekend; fortunately, there is lots to keep you occupied while you wait :)

Arts & Culture

Spend a morning at the Portland Museum of Art in Downtown. Just a 15 minute walk from the apartment.. You’ll find a wonderful collection of American, European and contemporary art, as well as beloved Maine works, like Winslow Homer paintings. It’s a small museum, so you can do the whole thing in an hour or two.
