The South Portland Rec Center is a really nice place to stop by for a public shower. They are completely free; all you have to do is check-in with the front desk and ask if you can use the shower. You don’t even need a day pass! Very clean, endless hot water, and super friendly staff. Couldn’t be happier with this place.
