Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Old Orchard Beach, located in the state of Maine, first opened to the public over 170 years ago, and its 7 miles of sandy beach are often patrolled by lifeguards.

There is more to Old Orchard Beach than its pristine sand and swimming opportunities, however, and the real attraction for some is Old Orchard's Pier, which stretches over 500 feet into the Atlantic Ocean.

The pier is covered with a large assortment of entertainment options, from games to whale watching tours, dance clubs, restaurants, and even seasonal firework displays.

Near the beach is the Dunegrass Golf Club as well as the Beachfront Palace Playland Park, the only amusement park in New England to be located on a beachfront.

The beach is easily accessible by car or, for those looking to have a night out on the town, there is an Amtrak stop moments from the beach that allows for responsible transportation after an evening of fun and indulgence.
