As a mainer, wer'e big into nature. The closer to nature the better. This place is magnificent, no crazy tourists, no expensive parking. A beautiful beach through a gorgeous walking path, facts about wildlife and a lovely exhibit. We will be returning next year!

We rode rented horses along the beach. Nice, not too many people. We had a beautiful day and a great experience.
