Popham Beach--Way Cool!!!

Deciding between conflicting recommendations (Popham v. Reid), we decided to go to Popham Beach State Park.  It was great!!!!!  The sand was smooth, and there was plenty of space.  We arrived at low tide, which meant that we could trek across the sandbar over to an island for climbing around.  The interesting topography created mini-rivers of warm (almost hot) water leading into the cold water.  There were waves as well as still water areas--something for everyone.  As the tide turned, the sandbar covered up and we had to keep moving our chairs back.  Note the difference in the photos.
