On Beach Street between Main and Granite, Back Beach offers great views as a bonus to its sand and surf and is close to the downtown shopping area. Back Beach is a renowned scuba diver’s destination.
Located on MA-127, just north of the Village area, this is more of an explorer’s beach than a swimming beach. Scuba divers often dive from here, and the surface is generally a combination of rocks and sand. If you want a place to sit and enjoy the breeze, but not necessarily diving in the water, this is a nice spot.
If you buy a seasonal sticker, it is valid for parking in this area, as there is sticker parking available along the street near the beach.
