lower-intermediate
Ogunquit Beach is a long, sandy beach that catches swells from multiple directions and has numerous peaks allowing surfers to spread out. The river mouth influences currents and sandbars, producing strong rip currents; the town offers parking, food and facilities nearby.
Early access
Follow the paths from the parking area to the beach; the sand is flat but expect a longer walk to the water at low tide.
Parking
Large municipal lots serve the beach, but they fill quickly in tourist season—arrive early or park in town and walk.
