Perkins Cove, Ogunquit: Tips for Visitors with Limited Mobility

Perkins Cove is a small working harbor in Ogunquit, packed with lobster boats, shops, galleries and seafood restaurants around a pedestrian drawbridge. It is compact, which is good news, but it is also crowded and parking is tight.

Getting there

Parking in the cove is limited and paid. On busy days, drop off whoever is in the chair or on the scooter close to the shops, then park. Arriving from the Marginal Way is another nice option.

Getting around

The cove is small and mostly level, but walkways between shops are narrow and busy. A transport chair is the easiest to steer through crowds. A Pride GoGo travel scooter works well too at a slow pace. Some older shops have a step at the entrance.

Eating out

Many restaurants have decks over the water. Call ahead and ask about an accessible entrance and a table that fits a chair.
