Jennings Beach
6 Radiant and Delights

This beach is quite familiar, especially if you're looking to have a good time with the kids.

Compo Beach
10 Adam Kowalski

The beach offers stunning scenery and a tranquil atmosphere.

Calf Pasture Beach
6 Sarina Martinez

This shoreline evokes memories of my cherished childhood beach; it's a frequent destination for my family and me. Despite the abundance of jagged rocks that can cause cuts, the beach is usually bustling with activity. The splash pad is a highlight, but caution must be exercised as it can be quite slippery. The park facilities are top-notch and the beach itself is quite lovely. However, the restrooms have an unpleasant odor.

Sherwood Beach
10 Auriana Candelaire

This beach is absolutely beautiful and serene. The maintenance is top-notch and the scenery is breathtaking. Additionally, it's a great spot for families with plenty of room to spread out.

Seabluff Beach
10 Nico Romano

Wow, this beach is absolutely stunning. The water is remarkably cleaner than Hammonassett Beach, although it is a bit colder. Non-residents can expect to pay $2.5 per hour for parking. The sand is immaculate and free from any shells. Despite being quite busy, the beach is still spacious enough to enjoy without feeling overcrowded. There are plenty of activities to enjoy such as swings, volleyball, and even porter-putty. I have definitely found my new favorite spot.
