Kittery's Seapoint beach is a great spot to quickly get to the ocean for an afternoon walk or lazy afternoon. PLEASE ONLY park in Non-Resident parking spots about 1/4 from the beach. These are clearly marked on the right hand side as you approach the beach. You can drive all the way up to the beach access to drop off your beach gear, and then turn around to park in the designated spots. You will be ticketed if you park in residential spaces.
The parking area often smells like seaweed, but once you get 100ft onto the beach that goes away! We love this beach! Please carry on/carry off trash, there is no trash pick up.
