Latest reviews on Connecticut's beaches

Bayley Beach
6 Elara Smith

This beach is quite small and suitable for families, as it offers a peaceful atmosphere. However, it is worth noting that the beach has a rocky shoreline and the sand is covered in shells, making it uncomfortable to walk on without water shoes. I would not suggest visiting this beach due to the limited walking space available, which can be disappointing after paying the parking fee to enter. It is unfortunate that many of the beaches in Connecticut that welcome non-residents either have high parking fees or are closed on Mondays, which seems unreasonable. Therefore, the options for beachgoers are quite limited.

McCook's Beach
8 Avea G

This beach is great for families, but it's a bit pricey with a $50 cost for parking and a beach day pass.

Southport Beach
10 Sara Lane

Taking a stroll and exploring the stunning Southport Beach during the off-season.

Cove Beach North
10 Rafael Dumitru

This beach is an incredible destination for everyone, whether you're looking to party, take a leisurely stroll, read a book, or simply relax. It's also pet-friendly, which is a big plus. I particularly enjoy the pleasant scent in the air.

Jacobs Beach
8 Feather Force

This cozy and serene beach is a hidden gem that exudes tranquility. Its pristine condition is what sets it apart, with amenities such as picnic tables, a playground, basketball and volleyball courts, and a water sprinkler area for children. Although it requires a fee of $70 for non-residents of Guildford, it is open to the public and allows dogs. The beach is not overcrowded, which makes it a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the peacefulness of nature. It is worth noting that the sand is decorated with numerous seashells, and jellyfish are present in the water. However, the absence of a daily pass is compensated by the availability of a season summer pass, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a relaxing retreat.

Tokeneke Beach
10 Reed Harrison

This beach is a stunning location for a wedding or any special event, with unbeatable views of the Sound.
