Hop to the Coast with Top Attractions & Things to Do in Portland, Maine

With a small-town feel, unique boutiques, a rich foodie culture and so many family-fun attractions to leap to, it’s no wonder frogs love Portland, Maine. Wander the cobblestone streets of the Old Port District until you find a small-batch ice cream or gelato shop that catches your eye. Hop over to the waterfront Fort Williams Park where you can explore an abandoned early 20th-century fort and see a lighthouse. For a frogtastic view of the bay and city, tour the Portland Observatory signal tower, the last remaining historic maritime tower of its kind in the United States.

To wash away rainy-day blues head to one of the vibrant museums like the Children's Museum & Theatre of Maine, the International Cryptozoology Museum and the Portland Museum of Art, try your hand at candlepin bowling or catch a light show at the University of Southern Maine’s Planetarium. Water-loving frogs can hit the bay on a sailboat tour, by learning how to sea kayak or taking part in a lobster tour to see how some of the fresh seafood of the area is caught. The quiet sandy beaches of Peaks Island are a short boat ride away, making for the perfect day trip. For an interesting view of the city, hop aboard a train ride at the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad. No matter how you spend your time in this port city, your frog family is sure to be ribbiting about it.
