How To Spend A Weekend In Portland Maine | Portland, Maine

We took a quick weekend trip up to Portland Maine to explore a wonderful part of the New England territory. We ate some delicious and fresh lobster rolls, visit the Portland Museum of Art, explored the downtown area, and plenty more
When we were there it was a little cloudy and rained a little but that didn't stop us from having fun and enjoying the best of this city!
On day 1 we went to Eventide Oyster Co. Their lobster rolls are unique in that they come in the Asian-inspired bun with a nice butter sauce. It might not look like it, but the lobster roll was packed out with lobster meat. What surprised us was definitely their clam chowder which had seaweed, potatoes, bacon, and large chunks of clams. It was incredibly fresh and had an umami flavor to it which threw us off but it was great! We can't stop raving about this spot. But be sure to order online prior unless you like to wait an hour for a table.
We then head to the Portland Head Lighthouse, which is known to be the most photographed lighthouse in America! But after spending some time there we could definitely see why that is. No matter what angle you photograph from, you'll always get a great shot of the lighthouse.
Right by the lighthouse is another famous lobster roll stand called Bite Into Maine which offers a more traditional lobster roll along with additional unique flavors. We opted for the traditional Maine lobster roll and the picnic-style lobster roll. With these, there was a pile of massive chunks of lobster which surprised us. Their lobster rolls were perfectly creamy and with the added lemon juice you get a nice freshness and tang to the roll! Definitely, a must when in Portland!
We end our day exploring Downtown Portland and checking out the cute shops and soaking in the New England culture. It was such a great way to end the day and walk off all the lobster we ate throughout the day.
Day 2 started early. We had booked a morning trip with the Portland Schooner. They are a sailing company that offers sailing rides throughout the day on their boats. It was incredibly fun. The day we went, the weather was a little less than ideal. But we made the most of it and had a great time. It was cool to see them hoist the sail and take us around the coast of Portland.
Afterward, we head over to the highly-rated Holy Donut which is special because their donuts have potatoes in them! So interesting. When we had arrived, there was a long line to get it. We waited for about 20 mins and were finally let in. They offer some seasonal flavors that are all incredibly good. We bought half a dozen of assorted flavors and can't stop thinking about them. We went back a second time on our trip they were that good!
After getting our donuts we wanted to go somewhere indoors and what better way to spend a day indoors than in a museum, so we went to the Portland Museum of Art. A wonderful museum that houses a bunch of different pieces from different eras. We spent the remainder of the day here and had a wonderful time!

Have you had lobster rolls before?

[@kayd731]

No but they look so good!

[@garrycole9187]

I am visiting Portland in a couple of months and have watched many videos and found yours to be so much more well made, organized, informative, and well shot. You had the simple shot of location and activities, not all this high energy camera going everywhere. Thank you and definitely keep up the good work.

[@MrMrsK21]

Thank you so much for your kind words. We truly appreciate it. Have fun in Portland! It’s a great place 😊

[@docbrady6397]

I will see you in a couple of weeks. We will be there end of August beginning of September

[@AlphaTraveler1]

Maine's seafood is fantastic and some of the views you showed is fantastic.

[@MrMrsK21]

It’s probably the best in America! Soo good 😊

[@LynnMumbingMejia]

Omg the lobster rolls and clam chowder looks amazing! I am a sucker for clam chowder! Glad you had a wonderful time :)

[@MrMrsK21]

They were sooo good! We seriously can’t stop thinking about them.

[@Autourdumonde1]

[@MrMrsK21]

[@AnnaTravels]

Another solid vlog. My friend is moving up to Maine and it gives me another excuse to head up there.

[@MrMrsK21]

Thanks Anna! Lol you don’t need an excuse to go up there. Just go! 😂 you won’t regret it

[@giveyandmyla1859]

We are excitedly here right back at you guys. We are seeing very interesting thumbnails. Now we need time to catch up! Thank you so much, enjoyed this video. Hope to see you here in Canada💪

[@MrMrsK21]

[@PeterLisaKim]

It’s been so hot lately, we miss this kinda weather. But wow those lobster rolls! 😍

[@MrMrsK21]

Lol I think I’ll take the hot weather over this cold. But the LA hot might be a little too much lol. Maine lobster rolls are no joke 😊

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

When it’s raining... go to a museum! Good plan!

[@MrMrsK21]

Such a great way to avoid the rain!

[@BumblingTourist]

I had to pause the video to get food 🤤 drooool! Always love a good art gallery too! Last time I was in Maine it was the 80's Haaaa, time to go back!

[@MrMrsK21]

LOL yea its been a while. The food is too good!

[@HomeARoam]

Hundreds if not thousands of times.

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

[@StephenandAndie]

I grew up in New England on al those foods. I MISS IT!!! 😩 Thank you for the trip down memory lane.

[@StephenandAndie]

I love that you include so much art in your vlogs, too.

[@MrMrsK21]

Such a great part of America! You guys should visit sometime soon!

[@janetorozco3309]

What an awesome video! Lobster rolls are the best! I just uploaded a maine trip video. It is absolutely stunning there especially now when the leaves are changing colors. I can’t wait to go back!

[@MrMrsK21]

Seriously the best! Ugh I want some just thinking about it. We hope to make it up there one day when the leaves change, it’s gotta be gorgeous! Thanks for watching 😃 we’ll definitely check out your channel also!

[@SwiftyTravels]

I’ve never visited Maine but man I really need to visit and eat some of those lobster rolls- they look FABULOUS!

[@MrMrsK21]

They are amazing! Making the trip for the lobster rolls will be worth it 👍

[@WITYTRAVELS]

Love that lighthouse! That's wild you had to wait so long for dinner and that they book up that far out in advance. Any day you can be out on the water is a good day. Never heard of a potato doughnut. Museum of art looks like a must see!

[@MrMrsK21]

Lol we’ve never heard of a potato donut either until we got here. But don’t knock it until you try it. Thanks for watching 😊

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

I want those lobstah rolls NOW! I adore them and those rolls looked amazing!!!

[@MrMrsK21]

They were fantastic! Definitely the best in America!

[@TheEvergreens]

Great vlog from Portland, guys! We were just up there and filmed a food tour in the area :) lots and lots of Lobster.

[@MrMrsK21]

[@TheEvergreens]

@@MrMrsK21 awesome...thanks guys!!

[@harininkorea3999]

nice video & the food look so delicious my friend 😋 thanks you for sharing stay connected 🥰

[@MrMrsK21]

It was great! Thank you for watching and supporting!

[@BrokenDreamsReborn]

We would like to visit Maine someday! We have never had a lobster roll! They sound like they would be really good! Are they worth all the hype?

[@MrMrsK21]

Ohhh they are most definitely worth all the hype! Fresh caught lobster on a buttered roll? It’s all so good. Definitely have to try it one day!

[@bryanalvarez4482]

What time of the year was this filmed?

[@MrMrsK21]

Early June 2021

[@myytchannel6632]

Do they allow people to fly their drone at that Portland Head Lighthouse?

[@MrMrsK21]

Though there wasn’t a sign or anything that said you couldn’t fly drones there was a park where we and a few others were flying drones and no one told us we couldn’t fly there. I would check Maine’s government website or the FAA regarding official rules

[@myytchannel6632]

@@MrMrsK21 OK thanks. I am on my way to Portland today to visit that lighthouse. I will let you know if I fly or not.

[@TheAtemiles]

Could you guys see nee yorkers move there permanently?

[@MrMrsK21]

It’s a completely different environment. I could definitely see it. If they’re looking for a much more slower pace and peace

[@jaykay5086]

Did eventide need reservations?

[@MrMrsK21]

You don’t need a reservation but we highly recommend you make reservations prior. We arrived without rsvp and it was a 2 hour wait!

[@potusabckids372]

Take off the damn mask …you’re outdoors

[@sunnyskytravel4571]

Man those lobster rolls look amazingly good! And the chowder! We've heard the seafood is great in New England and watching this is making me hungry!

[@MrMrsK21]

New England seafood is next level! It’s all so good and shouldn’t be missed. Thanks for watching!
