Figure 3. An antique photograph of the central portion of Willard Beach indicates a level of recreational use that is similar to that of today. The seaward edge of the frontal dune vegetation is visible in the foreground and would continue past the utility pole and playground if left undisturbed by people. The Willard Haven Inn is visible in the background. This beach is one of Maine's few urban beaches and, because of its location, continues to be very popular for recreation.
