Swim Sand Beach
Acadia National Park
Acadia’s only sandy ocean beach, at the beginning of the Park Loop Road’s coastal section, is one of the park’s most heavily-visited areas. Visitors come to swim in the frigid water, bask and play on the sand, seek intertidal creatures, or view a feature widely publicized as a “must-see.”
