Just down the road from us, Joseph's is the place to go if you're looking for something a bit fancier than the day to day beach food options. They have gorgeous views from their rooftop and patio dining areas and you cannot go wrong with their food and cocktails. A must-do for date night or a brunch date! You will need to make a reservation in advance!!

Walk down to the end of the beach where it turns into Kinney Shores and explore the area where Goosefare Brook meets the Saco Bay.

I recommend renting a golf cart (needs to be done in advance, online). There are 2 golf cart companies on the island) so you can explore the entire island. On the opposite side of the ferry terminal there are old military barracks you can walk through. Definitely fun for adults and older kids alike. And several beaches to explore along the way.
