Perkins Cove began as a small fishing community. Each day, fishermen and lobstermen would head out for the daily catch. One would see sailors and cove men fixing lobster traps, fishing gear, lines and nets along the Cove's water front. Overtime, those making a living off the sea came to share Perkins Cove with local artists and shop owners - Everyone was attracted by the quaint beauty of this seaside harbor.
