Discover the Charm of Old Orchard Beach

Old Orchard Beach, nestled along Maine’s scenic coastline, is a town that captures the essence of New England’s unique allure. Boasting a perfect blend of seaside charm and vibrant local culture, Old Orchard Beach is not just a destination… it’s an experience. As you explore our town, you’ll discover the many facets that make us truly special. Let’s dive into three key elements that define our beloved Old Orchard Beach: The Pier, our Local Culture, and Seasonal Events.

The Pier

One of the most iconic landmarks in Old Orchard Beach is The Pier. Extending 500 feet over the Atlantic Ocean, The Pier is a testament to our town’s rich history and coastal lifestyle. Its story dates back to 1898, and while storms have reshaped it over the years, The Pier remains a lively hub of activity, teeming with shops, restaurants, and a nightclub.

The wooden walkway of The Pier presents an enchanting journey. As you stroll along, you’ll find unique local boutiques offering a variety of crafts, souvenirs, and beach essentials. The restaurants and food stands along The Pier serve everything from classic New England seafood to globally-inspired cuisines. At the end of The Pier, you’ll find a nightclub that comes alive as the sun sets, offering music and entertainment late into the night.

Local Culture

Beyond the beach and The Pier, Old Orchard Beach is a town with a rich and vibrant local culture. Our town is home to a friendly, welcoming community that upholds traditions while embracing the new. This unique blend of old and new is evident in our local businesses, art scene, and culinary landscape. From traditional seafood shacks and ice cream parlors to innovative restaurants and craft breweries, the local food scene is a culinary adventure. The local shops offer a range of products, from handmade crafts and art to beachwear and surfboards.

Seasonal Events

One of the joys of Old Orchard Beach is the variety of seasonal events that bring our community together. From traditional summer fairs and music festivals to our winter holiday celebrations, there’s always something happening in Old Orchard Beach. The summer months are packed with events, such as the weekly summer concert series, the annual Lobster Dip for charity, the annual car show, weekly fireworks, and various beach sports tournaments. As fall approaches, the town turns into a spectacle of autumn colors, celebrated through events like our annual Harvest Festival. During the winter holiday season, Old Orchard Beach transforms into a winter wonderland, complete with a festive parade and tree lighting ceremony at Christmas.

No matter the season, Old Orchard Beach is a town that thrives on community spirit, celebrates its unique culture, and cherishes its stunning natural beauty. We invite you to explore our town and immerse yourself in the Old Orchard Beach experience.
