Oyster Shucking

All of our oysters at Black Point Inn are opened to order by the sure hands of our fabulous kitchen team.  We mainly serve the famous Damariscota Oyster, sometimes we serve Glidden Points.  We are especially proud to carry oysters from the Nonsuch Oyster company, located just across the way.  We show these special, local oysters on Tuesday Nights during our weekly Live Jazz on the deck.

Fresh Halibut!

Our Sous Chef Karl was sharpening his fish knives yesterday in preparation for cutting a whole halibut.  Our photographer was quick with a video camera to capture Karl expertly working on this fish.

Super fresh! Super good!  Take a look!

Sunset Project continued, and the Carry All is open!

Our photographers have submitted another update to the sunset series.  Last night there was another interesting sunset here in front of Black Point Inn, that just had to be recorded… we think you might agree!

And this morning we heard that the Carry All was open for the season!  The Prouts Neck one-stop-shop for wine, newspapers, candy, and many many extraordinary and intriguing and eclectic gifts…

Take a look!

Fiddleheads, oysters, and a bag of mussels!

Major action at the 3-bay sink in the kitchen today.  One sink full of fresh fiddleheads being cleaned, another with fresh oysters being scrubbed a little to bring out the shine, and a third bay for rinsing out some mussels… destined for the steamer.  Spring menus in Maine at their best….. no lobsters in the photos but they were not too far away!

Sod!!

Our photographer caught Larry, our all-in-one guy, fixing a spot on the lawn by the road that the snow plow had hit this past winter.  This all just in time for the Memorial Day Weekend!  The weekend that kicks off the season all across Maine.

Now what was that about the Carry-all?  Must send our photographer down there to see what Larry was talking about?

Beaches and Bicycles..

Sunny and warm day here out on Prouts Neck at Black Point Inn.  Our photographer thought it was a perfect day to capture a few images of the Sand Dollar beach just below the Inn.  On his way out he noticed that the bicycles were out and ready for guests use.

At the beach the sand was warm, the water clear and the Inn could be seen just above the dunes.  See you all here soon!

Sunset project, take #1.

The first in an installment of sunset images at Black Point Inn. The inn is unique in that the sun sets over the water and the Pine Point beach beyond, and can be seen each night from the seats in the Chart Room and on the Porch.

Last night our photographers were out in force attempting to capture the sunset.  This one might be hard to beat.  We had a very intense thunderstorm blow through from the West just before sunset, and so as the rain lifted the sunset revealed was quite extraordinary.  But you can let us know what you think.
