Old Orchard Beach has been welcoming visitors for over 170 years and would be an excellent choice for a Memorial Day outing. At the heart of the beach lies the Old Orchard Pier, which extends nearly 500 meters out over the pounding Atlantic Ocean. From this historic center point you can hop aboard a whale watching boat, join a birdwatching tour, fish for your supper, or shop, eat, and drink. Close by you will find Beachfront Palace Playland Park, which is always a hit with families. Golfers can play golf nearby while the rest of the family enjoys soaking up the sun or having a go at parasailing and jet skiing.
