Scarborough Beach, Cumberland County, Maine
|
| | 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
Beach folks ordinarily enjoy this section of Maine. The nearby lodgings are quite far away from the beach, but you'd better book ahead of going as these hotels fill up fast during the warmest time of the year. Scarborough |

There are campgrounds pretty close to the section of shore where you can pitch that tent.
