Take a trolley to downtown Ogunquit.

You can take the trolley from Beach Dreams (blue trolleys), but you had to then make a transfer to the Ogunguit line (red trolleys.) Instead park at the Trolley Depot on Rt 1 and hop the red trolleys. Once you get to Ogunquit, get a souvenir at Sea Bags or an ice cream at Sweet Pea’s.

It's in Cape Elizabeth--visit the beach to the left of the parking lot for cool rock caves and we always find sea glass there.
