Making a trip to the islands? Before a visit to our beautiful islands, be prepared!

NOTE: CAPE ISLAND IS CLOSED TO CAMPING DUE TO MAJOR STORM DAMANGE AND SAFETY CONCERNS.

Before you come:
* Islands are open for public, noncommercial use only. Each island has a per campsite maximum capacity. Cape - 6 per site, Vaugn's - 4, 6, 12 people @ designated sites, Trott - 4, 4 and 6 @ designated sites. See maps.
* If you are going to camp, you will need to file a permit. To save time, you can print out the permit and fill out in advance. Click here for the permit. You also need to fill out a waiver. Print the waiver here. PLEASE NOTE - this is not a registration - you still need to go to the Kennebunkport Police. You can get these at the police as well.
* Fire Permits as well-issued @ Police Station on a limited and condition policy. Fire's are allowed only if you obtain a fire permit in designated fire pit locations only for each island (see maplet). We prefer a no fire policy as fires on islands can spread rapidly due to changing winds, interconnected root systems, organic soils and minimal to no means of fire protection.
