Acadia National Park will reopen its Park Loop Road and public restrooms Monday, and Maine will begin allowing access to several coastal state parks that had been closed since March. The Acadia announcement is the first step toward fully reopening what the National Park Service describes as the “crown jewel of the North Atlantic coast.” The state will allow public access to these 10 parks: Popham Beach State Park, Fort Popham and Fort Baldwin in Phippsburg; Kettle Cove State Park, Two Lights State Park and Crescent Beach State Park in Cape Elizabeth; Reed State Park in Georgetown, Scarborough Beach State Park in Scarborough, Ferry Beach State Park in Saco and Mackworth Island in Falmouth beginning Monday.
