There's a private dirt lot that leads to a small trailer full of fiery fun. The owner was super cool and and helped us pick out some faves. He steered us around the shop according to our price range and our vague preferences. Inside, there are many options from small (including firecrackers, party favors, and sparklers) to fireworks up to hundreds of dollars. There are even some packages that offer great variety to disturb the peace with. We ended up getting fireworks that were $12 - $20 a piece, and each one was really impressive! So much so that we had to apologize to the neighbors. Sorry, dad.

I'm a native Mainer, and I've always loved the Clam festival. Where people put their camping chairs out along the side walk reserving their spot to watch the parade. I came on Thursday for the farmers market, and chairs were already set up for the parade on Friday. No one touches them or steals them, talk about a beautiful small community where everyone is family. I got off at exit 15 and followed the signs for the park n ride share parking lot. You can park for free and a school bus will shuttle you over to the festival. Busses run about 15/20 minutes. So you won't have to wait long. I got there early morning, 10am, they had 2 busses running the route. I walked around all the venders selling their arts and crafts and homemade desserts. It's in the grass, and in the shade. Today was just such a gorgeous Maine day. Nice breeze. Lots of shade, and the friendliest kindest people. In the other section if you go under the over pass, there's the whole tent where they do the clam shucking contest and all the seafood. That whole area is all tented so again, more shade available, lots of tables and chair to sit and eat your seafood. So much work and effort goes into planning this and the Yarmouth chamber of commerce has it down! As I walked along the seafood venders of fried clams, French fries, lobsters, fried dough, etc. I was trying to figure out what's the best way to go about this. It's 10am, I just ate breakfast, and am I really ready for seafood right now. So I walked away to give myself some time. And that's when I saw a police K9 demonstration. So I found a shaded area, and sat down on the ground and watched how they train a dog to attack the bad people. That was pretty cool to watch. It was a little hard to hear the police officers speak but you could catch a few key words and understand what they were saying. It was fun to watch another police office who was very well padded, get attacked by a dog. After the demonstration I wondered over to the rides area. Lots of rides I loved as a kid. The zipper, the Ferris wheel, and a few others. Lots of carnival type foods on that side. Cotton candy, candy apples, fried Oreo cookies, and fried dough too. The rides take tickets and it's cash only. And I believe rides cost a couple tickets each. By the time I walked around and saw everything I was ready for some Maine seafood. I decided on the shore dinner platter. A whole soft shell lobster. Steamers, small corn on the cob and potato salad. They give you a small container of hot water and butter. And a bundle of lobster bib, knife fork and wet nap. That was only $40.00 I thought that was a steal, and I was getting all the best of Maine seafood. Clams were outstanding. I haven't had steamed clams in forever. Lobster was sweet. Perfectly cooked. Corn was great. Potato salad was great too. I was so happy in my Maine heaven taking pictures like I was a tourist. I am, but not really. After eating I sat a little and then decided to head back up to the venders and look around some more. Then I caught the bus back to the park n ride share parking lot. Wonderful time. Perfect weather. Maybe I'll start coming every year for the Yarmouth clam festival. This year marks 57 years! Way to go Yarmouth.

If paying with a credit card, your name on the card must match your ID and name on the form. As with many things, the best value is in the high end stuff--check out the loads of 500g maximum legal fireworks you can shoot off. Jenny, the store manager, was working the store solo when I visited and she has a decade of experience. She also loves shooting fireworks and will describe what most (if not all) of what these fireworks do. Come in having thought through what you want. I like pretty fireworks with less noise, and I don't like having to run back and forth lighting one shot after another. I also don't like tall tubes that might fall over and send a shot into a crowd. I ended up with a 300 shot behemoth for $249 before tax. Got a coupon that dropped the next $199 to about $79. Not bad! So I had to buy that before driving off!

**November 2025: Saturday Morning Visit**…read more Visiting a lighthouse in Maine was a priority on this trip, so I did a little bit of research and saw that this lighthouse (the Portland Head Lamp) was not only the oldest lighthouse in Maine, but that it was also commissioned by George Washington! It's housed at Fort Williams Park and while we were there for the lighthouse there are other attractions like Fort Williams Museum and Cape Elizabeth History Center there as well. We parked as close as possible to the lighthouse and noticed that that was privately owned. The lowest number of hours you can purchase was 2 hours for $6. Since it was super windy and 30 some degrees we only stayed in the area for 20 mins or so. You can't go inside the lighthouse but you walk right up to it and see the coast. The view from the base of the lighthouse was beautiful and if it wasn't so cold I'd probably stay longer to enjoy the view. Note: They don't have trash cans there. Worth a visit! and maybe next time I'll see some of the other attractions at the park.
