York

York combines a maritime rhythm with centuries of settlement in a way that reflects its position along the tidal York River on southern Maine’s Atlantic coast. The river meets the sea at York Harbor, while Short Sands and Long Sands mark the town’s open shoreline. Offshore at nearby Cape Neddick, the Nubble Lighthouse is a familiar coastal landmark. In York Village, the Old York Gaol, built in 1719, preserves a tangible link to the colonial-era community and forms part of the Museums of Old York. Beaches, harbor activity and historic streets give this community a character distinct from Maine’s larger resort towns.
