Question 2

What is there to do in Stonington, Maine with your dog?

Accepted Answer

Stonington is an exceptionally dog friendly town. There is one restaurant and one ice cream stand, both of which are dog friendly. While it's off the beaten path and has few visitors, it is pedestrian friendly. It's easy to walk your dog down the couple streets and get beautiful ocean views at the same time. Nearby there is a small sandy beach that has some small woodland trails. It's a beautiful place to catch a sunset.

Want to take your dog on the ferry to Isle au Haute? No problem - it is also dog friendly! The fare for the roundtrip ferry with 10 minutes on the island is $24. There are lots of hikes on the island too to check out, but be warned: this island is not for the casual tourist.
