The Atlantic coastline is a place of beauty and wonder, lapping along five of the six New England states and drawing visitors from around the world. In this season one segment from Weekends with Yankee (episode 101), we’re in Ogunquit, Maine, named by Yankee Magazine as the best beach town in New England. With its sandy beaches, great restaurants, and scenic walks, Ogunquit is arguably the dream New England coastal town. We join lobsterman Grant Hubbard for a tour of the shoreline and to learn why the Maine waters produce the country’s best lobsters. Then, we haul in a few traps and find out which lobsters are keepers, and which ones go back to the ocean to help keep the industry thriving.
