Scarborough Beach Custom Search   We went to Scarborugh Beach on September 19, 2007 and were very disappointed. At the gate house a young fellow collected $4 from us. The restrooms were fenced in and locked. We did what we had to do on the beach. When the place is closed for the season why still collect an entrace fee? Gunta Eglitis from Westwood, Mass. Says Gunta Ok, you've been cooped up for too much time, and Scarborough Beach in Cumberland County, Maine is exactly the location.     There are campgrounds reasonably in the neighborhood of the piece of shoreline where you can raise that tent. No chance of becoming bored in Maine if you take pleasure in the beach. There's a lot of outdoors recreation available nearby such as swimming, golfing, fishing, boating, and whitewater paddling, so feeling bored is not something that is projected to happen. You may well have to settle for a hotel a far from the beach if you want to spend a night, but do book a room in advance of a trip as it is a very popular destination. Good sparkling water and the coast is a panorama worth seeing.              Map Detailed Map Weather Local weather forecast These outdoors activities are available near Scarborough Beach.   Other Beaches Near Scarborough Beach: Western Beach, Cumberland County , 1 miles away Back Shore, Cumberland County , 1 miles away Pine Point Beach, Cumberland County , 2 miles away Surfside Beach, York County , 4 miles away Old Orchard Beach, York County , 5 miles away   Marinas Near Scarborough Beach: Dimillo's Marina, Portland , 7 miles away Spring Point Marina, South Portland , 7 miles away Kennebunkport Marina, Kennebunkport , 15 miles away Chick's Marina, Kennebunkport , 15 miles away Yarmouth Boat Yard, Yarmouth , 15 miles away   Hotels Near Scarborough Beach: The Higgins Beach Inn, Scarborough , 2 miles away Lighthouse Inn at Pine Point, Scarborough , 3 miles away Super 8 South Portland, South Portland , 4 miles away Best Western Merry Manor Inn, South Portland , 4 miles away Quality Inn & Suites, South Portland , 4 miles away Howard Johnson Hotel South Portland, South Portland , 4 miles away Americas Best Value Inn, Scarborough , 4 miles away Knights Inn South Portland, South Portland , 4 miles away Comfort Inn & Suites, Scarborough , 4 miles away Econo Lodge Maine Mall, South Portland , 5 miles away   Campgrounds Near Scarborough Beach: Bayley's Camping Resort, Scarborough, 3 miles away Wild Acres Family Camping Resort, Old Orchard Beach, 5 miles away Powder Horn Family Camping Resort, Old Orchard Beach, 5 miles away Wild Duck Campground, Scarborough, 5 miles away Ne're Beach Family Campground, Old Orchard Beach, 5 miles away   Ski Areas Near Scarborough Beach: Lost Valley, Maine , 30 miles away, 240 foot drop, 2 lifts, 17 runs Shawnee Peak, Maine , 44 miles away, 1300 foot drop, 5 lifts, 44 runs Mount Abram, Maine , 50 miles away, 1150 foot drop, 5 lifts, 39 runs Black Mountain, Maine , 56 miles away, 1120 foot drop, 4 lifts, 21 runs Titcomb, Maine , 56 miles away, 350 foot drop, 2 lifts, 15 runs King Pine, New Hampshire , 57 miles away, 350 foot drop, 6 lifts, 16 runs Sunday River, Maine , 60 miles away, 2340 foot drop, 18 lifts, 128 runs Cranmore Mountain, New Hampshire , 61 miles away, 1200 foot drop, 10 lifts, 39 runs Abenaki, New Hampshire , 64 miles away, 100 foot drop, 2 lifts, 6 runs Bradford, Massachusetts , 66 miles away, 300 foot drop, 8 lifts, 13 runs   Whitewater Near Scarborough Beach: Presumpscot River, Cumberland County , 8 miles away, Class I-IV - 2.5 miles long (Sebago Lake to Pleasant Hill) Royal River, Cumberland County , 15 miles away, Class II-IV - 1 miles long (Yarmouth Waterworks to Town Landing) Chandler Brook, Cumberland County , 22 miles away, Class I-II - 10 miles long (Runaround Pond to Royal River) Saco River, York County , 26 miles away, Class II+(IV) - 0.5 miles long (Limington Rips) Saco River, Cumberland County , 28 miles away, Class I-II+(V+) - 0.3 miles long (Steep Falls)   Golf Courses Near Scarborough Beach: Pleasant Hill Golf Course, Scarborough , 2 miles away Willowdale Golf Club, Scarborough , 4 miles away Sable Oaks Golf Club, South Portland , 5 miles away Nonesuch River Golf Club, Scarborough , 6 miles away Abenakee Club, Biddeford Pool , 6 miles away   Lakes Near Scarborough Beach: Highland Lake, Cumberland County , 10 miles away Sebago Lake Basin, Cumberland County , 18 miles away Chaffin Pond, Cumberland County , 18 miles away Little Sebago Lake, Cumberland County , 18 miles away Crystal Lake, Cumberland County , 20 miles away
