Here you will find the famous Ocean Point, a popular summer cottage colony, and it's 2 mile Ocean Point Loop which offers stunning rocky vistas and views of 3 lighthouses. The Penninsula is surrounded by Linekin Bay to the west and The Damariscotta River on the east side, and is a great area for boating and kayaking.

Ocean Point Inn and Lobsterman's Wharf are excellent local waterfront restaurants, and The East Boothbay General Store serves a variety of specialty foods and the best sandwiches around.

I'BBH is unique in that there are several boat tours that leave right from the pier downtown. We have whale watches, puffin and river tours, schooner trips and even booze cruises. You can always combine lobster and a tour, by checking out the Cabbage Island Clambake, where you take a boat ride to an authentic island lobsterbake, replete with seaweed and hard boiled eggs.
