Guide
Good to know
Excellent for diving and snorkeling
The rock wall and clear water make this a solid spot for underwater activities.
Good for locals seeking quiet
If you have parking access, this is a peaceful, less crowded alternative to busier Massachusetts beaches.
Visit at low tide
The beach reveals more sand and is easier to navigate when tide.
Parking requires local access
You need a Hull Municipal sticker or must live within walking distance, as visitor parking is extremely limited.
Expect a rocky, small beach
Much of the beach is rocks rather than sand, and the overall area is compact.
