"One of just a few beaches in Acadia, the aptly named Sand Beach is a natural pocket beach about 300 yards wide. While half the beach is sand, the other half consists of mussel and crab shells, plus the remains of other various sea creatures. Sand Beach has long been a cinematic destination, with scenes of the beach appearing in films such as "The Cider House Rules." - Travel + Leisure Editors
