Public Way 2 at Wells Beach offers classic Maine coastline scenes: wide sandy beach, tidal pools, rocky outcrops and distant headlands. Best for sunrise/sunset colors, long exposures of surf and shorelines, and intimate details like wet sand reflections and shorebirds. Public access from nearby parking; summers are busy—weekday mornings and shoulder seasons are quieter. Check tide charts and weather for dramatic skies; no entry fee.
