Where to Swim!
Our Favorite Local Swimming Spots
Winslow Park
Great local ocean swim spot! This is a small beach so it can get overcrowded on a warm day. Best experienced at high tide. There is an excellent playground here too!
​
This is a great beach if you’re looking for a “beach day.” It’s about a 45 minute drive north of here and it’s gorgeous. Parking can fill up fast on a nice day.
​
Seawall Beach at Morse Mountain
About 50 minutes away, hike about a 2-mile easy hike to a very secluded sandy beach. The parking lot quickly fills up, so arrive early!
​
Gorgeous beach about 40 minutes south of here
​
Great beach in Cape Elizabeth, about 30 minutes south
​
Kettle Cove beach is a smaller beach inside of Crescent Beach State Park, and is way more secluded. Once in Crescent Beach State Park, follow signs for Kettle Cove
​
A beautiful 4-acre sandy beach that locals love.
​
If you are looking for a fresh water swim, Sebago Lake is very popular. It has a lot of sandy areas for access points!
​
Note that many popular beaches in Maine are State Parks and have strict "no pet" rules between April 1st and September 30th.
