Higgins Beach

Higgins Beach is located just off route 77 in Scarborough, Maine. Close to a half mile of sandy beach, it's a local favorite. The beach has easy entry to the water and is relatively rock free for a Maine beach. Void of large crowds, great waves for surfers, and quiet atmosphere makes Higgins Beach a great place to relax and enjoy time with family and friends.
