Today at Spruce Point Inn...

Partly cloudy early followed by scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. High 74F. Winds SSW at 10 to 15 mph. Thunderstorms likely. Rainfall will be locally heavy at times. Low 64F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.

From 10 am to 4 pm, visit the Boothbay Region Arts and Crafts show at the Boothbay Common today. The Boothbay Harbor Country Club is just around the corner and is a terrific spot for lunch.

For a day trip, conditions are perfect for the Pemaquid Lighthouse Loop. The breeze out of the south will create a bit of surf to view while on the Pemaquid Point. Visit Shaw's Fish and Lobster Wharf for lunch. The fresh crab salad and fried clams are excellent. Download the SPI Mobile App for directions: App Store, Google Play

Downtown Boothbay Harbor, with it's quaint sidewalks and many shops and places to lunch, is also a nice activity today. Try Downeast Candies for something sweet and just across the street, Boat House Bistro for lunch. The third floor might be a bit breezy today. Wear a sweatshirt!

Gleason Fine Art, Eventide, Abacus, Palabra Shop, and House of Logan are some of our favorite places to visit while in the Harbor.

Enjoy your day!
