York Harbor Beach

This small crescent of sandy beach has calm (if cold!) waters and tide pools, and as such it's immensely popular with families with small kids. There's a parking lot here, but it requires a permit – you'll need to find street parking along US 1A, which tends to be plentiful, although you may have to walk a little.
