Read about our visit

Our visit to Palace Playland in Old Orchard Beach was the ultimate nostalgic beach day experience! Steps from the sand and boardwalk, this classic seaside spot is packed with fun—from dozens of claw machines (including a adorable custom French-fry-stealing seagull plush) to skee ball, redemption games, and old-school wild west shooting galleries. We love that game cards use reloadable credits that also work on the outdoor rides and carnival games, making it super easy to jump between the arcade and beachfront excitement. With fair pricing, great bundle deals, and ocean views just outside the door, it’s a must-visit for families and kids of all ages.
