Even though Maine is filled with cool resort towns, you have to admit that there is something special about Old Orchard Beach.

For those who don't already know, Old Orchard Beach is a classic beach resort town.  It has a pier filled with shops and restaurants, a beachside amusement park, numerous bars & restaurants spread across the beachfront, and a miles-long sandy beach.

It is like something you'd see in a movie.

The town is filled with non-stop action from Memorial Day to Labor Day.  In addition to the beach itself, there is always something going on, like festivals, concerts, shows, and fireworks.

One of the coolest offerings in Old Orchard Beach is weekly fireworks displays.
