Maine State Route 96

State Route 96 (SR 96) is a short state highway on the eastern coast of Maine. It runs for 5.73 mi, serving Ocean Point in the village of East Boothbay, located on the Linekin peninsula. It connects to SR 27 in Boothbay on the mainland. It is one of several coastal routes which "dead-end" at or near the Atlantic coastline.

SR 96 has the shape of an inverted uppercase "L" and is signed east–west. However, the majority of the highway's length in Linekin runs nearly due north and south.

Route description
SR 96 begins in the west at SR 27 just north of the town center of Boothbay Harbor. SR 27 is the only major road connecting from this area to the rest of the state and is additionally signed as "TO U.S. ROUTE 1," despite that US 1 connects to SR 27 over 10 mi to the north.

The first mile (1 mi) of SR 96 runs directly on the town line between Boothbay and Boothbay Harbor, before completely passing into Boothbay. SR 96 turns due south (signed east) onto the Linekin peninsula and passes through the village of East Boothbay, along Linekin Bay. The SR 96 designation continues as far south as Middle Road, where the main highway splits into local roads servicing Ocean Point directly.

SR 96 is named Ocean Point Road for its entire length, although the road does continue south into Ocean Point as an unnumbered local road.
