Eastern Point Beach

Small beach area and parking area but can get there in 10 minutes from anywhere local. Great for residents free parking with sticker from town hall There are bathrooms and a snack bar inside the large stone building on premise. A good local option.

We went and saw the sunrise here today. It was absolutely breath taking. This place has one of the best view to watch the sunrise.🌅 There is swimming here a beautiful sandy beach. There is a playground for the little ones andbasketball 🏀 for the older kids.There is plenty of parking here. They have lighthouse u can see from this area. Lots of boats moving around too.

Beautiful beach/park with a small playground. After Labor Day they stop charging to get in but during the busy summer months be prepared to pay! I can’t recommend more viewing a sunrise/sunset at Eastern Point Beach, and sometimes you’re lucky enough to see a submarine coming or going! My only complaint is that during the summer, the staff can be a bit rude.

Some stops aren’t planned... they just call to you. Eastern Point Beach was one of those. After a stretch of driving, I pulled in for a break and was greeted by a view that made me stop and breathe. Out on the water, ships stood at anchor, boaters cut across the blue, and sailboats drifted like pages turning in the wind. There’s something about the way the ocean moves that untangles your thoughts without you even asking. Tucked along the shore is the Stephen Zbiersky House... a beautifully renovated gem available to rent. My curiosity must have shown, because a kind gentleman wandered over, wondering what I was up to. When I told him I was an author and had questions about the house, he didn’t just answer... he opened the door. Literally. He gave me its history, let me peek inside, and even allowed me to photograph a newspaper article so I could read more later. He told me I could arrange a full tour through the county, or simply rent it for myself. What a wonderful, unexpected gift. And then there was Hobbs Island... a story that sounds like something out of a novel. A man once built a house right on the rocks, but his wife hated it. It was sold, and now it’s a children’s playhouse owned by a local family who runs their boats out there for the kids to enjoy. Pure, unpolished charm. Eastern Point Beach isn’t just a spot to stretch your legs... It’s a place where history brushes up against the present, where strangers become storytellers, and where the horizon feels close enough to touch.

I've been coming here since 1980 when I was a toddler and have always loved this little beach. $30 to get in to park as of 2024. You can pay by credit/debit card or cash. Lifeguards on duty for the summer. Concession stand is reasonable with prices but it's cash only. Nearest ATM is at Avery Market so be sure to have it on hand if you plan on buying food.
