How to Camp at Short Sands in York Beach, Maine

Seventy miles north of Boston, Mass., the small community of York Beach in Maine has campgrounds, shops and a theme park. The area shares two beaches called Short Sands and Long Sands. Long Sands beach is accessible by a short shuttle ride out of York Beach, but the best camping is found in York Beach proper, steps from Short Sands beach.
