Not only does the Buoy Shack boast a beautiful waterfront location, it also claims a special geographical distinction. As one of the southernmost points of Maine, their goal is to serve folks lobster just seconds after they enter the state.

Situated on the Back River in Bourne, Massachusetts, The Lobster Trap has been a Cape Cod institution since 1969. No longer just a classic shack, these days it’s a big, modern dining space complete with a fun bar, a retail market offering the freshest seafood in the area and outdoor patio with a view that can’t be beat.
