Don’t Miss The Biggest Seafood Festival In New Hampshire This Year In Hampton Beach
New Hampshire’s coast line is not something the state is known for. Those who live here and visit often know that it’s beautiful and lot of fun. But we can’t deny that most people think about the White Mountains when they consider a visit. But the truth is that the coastline is great and we offer plenty of fantastic seafood, too! To check it out make sure you plan on visiting this can’t-miss festival!
Hampton Beach is one of the most popular coastal destinations in New Hampshire. And for good reason! The sea and sand are gorgeous and there's so much to do in the area.
And that's the Hampton Beach Seafood Festival that takes place every year. 2020 was cancelled, but that means this year's comeback is sure to be a stunner.
Once you've made your plan for all the food you'd like to try make sure you've got time carved out to catch the annual lobster roll eating contest. Coney Island has nothing on a New Englander on a mission to house some lobster!
Seafood is the main attraction here, but don't forget the other vendors offering things like donuts, pastries and even the famous donut ice cream cone.
Remember to come hungry, but be prepared to pay individually for the food you'll be trying. Other than that, show up, eat up and have fun!
