York Beach Maine residents recently voted Yes on #23 and by doing so made history - making Longsands beach more accessible to surfers. The move allows for a new surf zone. A long waited relief for local surfers.

Surfers can now surf a wider section of Longsands Beach. Longsands is becoming increasely popular as a surfing destination. It's a short walk from the road to the oceans edge and the surf is usually pretty good - especially on stormy days.
