Ogunquit Cliff Walk .. part 3.

.

And we’re walking….

.

.

Along one of the prettiest stretches of Maine coast.

.

.

Many private homes line the Cliff Walk and while they all have stunning views, I can’t say I’d want a constant throng of tourists marching past my back door every day.

.

A quick video to give you a feel for the place.

.

When you near the end of the 1.25 mile stroll you enter Perkins Cove.

.

.

Once a thriving artists colony…

.

.

It now houses two waterfront restaurants and a large parking lot.

.

.

We took advantage of the former, Jackie’s Too.

.

.

Our table was perfect.

.

.

The basil lemonade? To die for.

.

.

Unfortunately the chowder was sub par. Creamy and clam filled, but completely bland and flavorless.

.

.

Husband had tiny and completely over cooked soggy mussels while I fought my way through a husk filled Caesar salad with dried out grilled chicken. $112 later we vowed never to return… to eat. The bar had a great view and the cocktail was fabulous.

.

.

Fueled up, we turned around and headed back to the Cliff Walk.

To be continued….
