Kennebunkport
Beach Town · Kennebunkport, Maine
A resort town of about three and a half thousand on the Kennebunk River, built on shipbuilding and fishing money and turned into a summer place in the nineteenth century. Dock Square is the centre, Walker's Point on the headland is the Bush family compound, and the beaches are a short drive south. It is the most polished of the southern Maine coastal towns and it knows it.
