Guide
Good to know
Dog-friendly with one requirement
Dogs are welcome but owners must clean up waste to preserve this privilege for the community.
Ideal for young children
Shallow water extends far out, staying warmer than typical Maine ocean temperatures.
Plan around the tide
At high tide, the beach nearly disappears leaving only rocks, but at low tide expansive sand flats emerge.
Arrive early on weekends
The small parking lot fills by late morning during peak season, forcing street parking in a residential area.
Bring water shoes for rocks
The shoreline includes substantial rocky areas mixed with sand, making footwear helpful for comfortable walking.
