The King's Port Inn would like to wish everybody a happy 4th of July! We hope you spend time with you family and friends. The weather is great and the sun is shining. It's a great time for a barbecue or a family get together. We hope you enjoy your time off.
The town of Kennebunk and Kennebunkport has their annual 4th of July fireworks at Gooch's Beach on Tuesday night around 9:00 pm (at dusk). There are many places to actually see the fireworks, here are some good locations:
At Kennebunk Beach. Come early, park the car(a parking pass is required-you can rent them at the King's Port), and spend some time relaxing before the show starts around dusk. Bring your own chair or blanket and a picnic dinner. The whole beach has a party feeling. Remember: leaving may be a bit slow-going, but not as bad as you think it might be.
At St. Ann's Church on Ocean Avenue in Kennebunkport. Park along Ocean Avenue or on side streets(the police will direct you) and walk to St. Ann's, where you'll have a gorgeous panoramic view of the fireworks. This location, too, has a party feel, as hundreds gather to watch.
Another great location is the Colony Hotel and Nonantum Hotel. They both have expansive lawns which offer a great view of the fireworks. There are waterfront restaurants there where you can order a cocktail. Both are located on Ocean Avenue. Or, you can try the Arundel Wharf or Salt And Honey, both great places to view the fireworks.
