Just north of Old Orchard is Grand Beach and, just beyond, Pine Point Beach, the latter distinguished by its southern exposure which means you Courtesy of Carolina Resort Motel can face both water and sun through the day. The sand here is much whiter and finer than at other beaches, there’s no undercurrent and with scarcely any surf Pine Point Beach is perfect for families with toddlers. Our sources insist that because the sun continues to warm the gently-sloping sand as the tide comes in, water temperatures here average five to 10 degrees warmer than along other sections of the Maine coast. And beach combers here will discover at low tide plenty of sand dollars, favorite mementos of a Maine shore vacation. The small residential peninsula of Pine Point is also noted for its lobsters and you’ll find three lobster pounds ready and willing to serve up the popular shore dinners. Here, too, you can step aboard one of several fishing boats for what expert anglers promise will be fruitful day trips on the water. “ In four hours, you can literally come back with 500 mackerel,” one insider reports. When the mackerel leave, the highly-prized blue fish take their place and our fisherman friend notes, “ For the last two years, we’ve had great blue fishing.” Pine Point also boasts a well-equipped campground for overnight visitors. Moving north, you’ll come upon more lovely beaches -- Ferry Beach on the south side of Prout’s Neck where artist Winslow Homer made his home, then Jordan’s, Scarborough and Higgins Beaches, each one popular with swimmers and sun-baskers.

By the middle of that century, 50 homes had been established at Black Point while others carved out homesteads at Dunstan, purchas­ ing 1,000 acres from the daughter of the Indian who was chief of Owascoag County. Owascoat — “ place of much grass” -- was the Indian name for Scarborough. But by 1676, Indians had destroyed the settlements and it wasn’t until 1702 that settlers returned here, building stockades for protection. In the mid and late 18th century, four daily stage coach lines passed through the old Dunstan area near the present-day intersections of Routes 1 and 9 and the area was peppered with taverns and inns where weary travelers could find refreshment. Electric car service between Portland and Saco, launched shortly after the turn of the century, defined Scarborough’s modern-day role as a suburban residential area for Portland workers and the opening of the Maine Turnpike in 1948 enhanced that role while the town began to develop its own industrial parks and shopping areas A splendid place for a family outing is the Scarborough Marsh Nature Center operated by the Maine Audubon Society. Here, among some 3,000 acres of salt marsh, you’ll find a variety of activities which provide a primer on the fascinating ecology of the Maine coast. Guided canoe tours provide a delightful diversion as you paddle quietly along the gently curving Dunstan River and birders can take guided strolls and catch site of egrets, herons, terns, wi I lets, sandpipers and plovers. Also featuring an aquarium, mounted bird and mammal exhibits and slide shows, the Nature Center is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekends.

Staples was “ coaxed” to board a handful of vacationers at Old Orchard Beach for the mighty sum of $1.50 a week, according to the town’s historical society. To­ day, this community which cele­ brates its 100th municipal birthday this year, is home to 6,000 year- rounders with a population which Swells during July and August. Courtesy of Carolina Resort Motel Indeed, the families -- both American and Canadian -- who flock to the clean sandy beach and lively resort community here each summer are part of a rich tradition dating back to 1840 when Staples, encouraged by his initial summer business, became convinced of the town’s vacation potential and erected the first Old Orchard House in the area of the present Staples Inn. Two years later, the first steam railroad from Portland to Boston brought more out-of-staters eager for a summer Maine experience and by 1853, the establishment of Grand Trunk Railroad service from Portland to Montreal introduced Canadians to Old Orchard’s seasonal charms. Named for the orchard which was part of the “ garden by the sea” planted by Thomas Rogers, the area’s first settler in 1657, Old Orchard was a part of Saco until 1883 when it became a separate municipality. And for the last century it has been one of the most popular vacation destinations in New England,particularly for families who enjoy not only the beach but a variety of amusement attractions. The original 1,770-foot pier for which the community became famous was built in 1898, but by the year’s end, it was damaged by the first of several ocean storms which were finally to demolish it on Groundhog Day of 1978. Known nation-wide for its casino and mammoth ballroom, the pier was the setting for performances of scores of the big bands from the “ Roaring Twenties” through the 1940’s when swing was in vogue.
