More info: Parson's Beach is very private with few visitors because of restrictive parking...only 6 or 7 parking spaces on Parson's Beach Road. Adjacent to the road is a tidal marsh with a few benches where you can sit and enjoy the quiet...shore birds, fish, and shells...lovely. You can walk along the Mousam River to the beach. Beach is private; beware of disturbing residents. Lovely at low tide.

Neighborhoods
The Lower Village of Kennebunk, once known as
“Harbor Village”, was developed in the eighteenth
century as a mecca for ship building. Workers at
numerous boatyards built many ships that turned
the Kennebunk River into a major port until the
mid-1800s when steam and steel ships replaced
the sailing schooners as the preferred trading
vessel of the era.
The late 1800s brought the addition of a train
station that provided a stopping place for
summer visitors from Boston and New York,
filling the area’s numerous hotels, inns and guest
houses. Our area remains a popular destination
due to our beautiful surroundings on the
Kennebunk River and the wide array of shops,
inns, restaurants and businesses.

Kennebunkport's Dock Square is located along the ocean and Kennebunk River. Settled in the 1600's and a long time ship building mecca, the river banks saw five-masted ships and schooners making their way down the river on their way to the sea. Sea captains built fine mansions, many of which are preserved today as lovely inns with antique charm. Over 100 years ago, this part of the Maine Coast first became a resort destination - today it's "the place to be all year".
