Here is a list of some of the local attractions you may be interested in. They are primarily in order of distance. Please feel free to contact with any questions. I can share my experience
*WESTBROOK—cute quaint, smallest of the area villages yet booming with the best restaurants out of any of them. These include Cafe Routier (the shoreline hot spot), Christy’s, Haywire, Lenny & Joes, Bill’s Seafood, etc. You can eat your way through Westbrook while enjoying its beautiful shoreline!
