Finishing up a tour of the lower Maine coast, we stopped in Ogunquit and were told of the Marginal Way. It is a beautiful paved walk along the coast with vistas of rocks, water, and boats. It is an absolute MUST! Be sure you have you camera and plenty of film/storage/batteries. more

If you find yourself in the Ogunquit/York area, you simply must walk along Marginal Way before you leave. With benches spaced regularly along the path, you can take as long as you want to enjoy the beautiful sea from atop the cliffs. From one spot you can admire the length of Ogunquit Beach, from another you can sit and watch... more

Nicely kept paved walkway right along the rocky coast of Ogunquit, Maine. Be careful, but climb the rocks and do a little wading. Path right between lovely homes and the ocean. more

The views from the walkways are beautiful and every turn brings a different view of the rocky coastline and waves. There were some sort of beach roses in bloom and purple thistles, adding to the beauty. Marginal Way is a photographers paradise; I can attest as took at least 50 pictures !! Going after Labor Day when most of the... more

We had visions in our head of our favorite spot -- Schooner Head, outside Acadia National... more

The Marginal Way was simply breathtaking. We parked at Perkins Cove and got some delicious taffy before our walk along on the Marginal Way. There are benches to stop and soak in the incredible views. We could have sat and watched the waves crashing on the rocky coastline for hours. It is a short walk, but well worth a visit.... more

I highly recommend walking along the Marginal Way. You can walk the entire walk from Perkins Cove, Oqunquit to the beach at Ogunquit or part of it. Keep in mind that at high tide you will see more of the ocean. At lower tide there are several spots where you can walk down directly onto the sand or on the... more

Marginal Way in Ogunquit is the quintessential Maine experience. Breathtaking views of the ocean, craggy shoreline and picturesque lighthouse. If you are traveling through the area by car it is worth the stop for a few photographs. more

My husband and I just returned from Marginal Way. It was truly beautiful and extradordinary. Even after reading the great reviews on this site, it still exceeded our expectations. It is impossible to describe the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks. I expected it to be cold because it is mid-November, but the weather was gorgeous, and the... more
