There are also a couple of nice sandy beaches on Prout's Neck (we had stayed at the Black Point Inn in 2004 and enjoyed beach walking there as well).
So funny, I was just going back to edit out my negativity and see your post--we actually have had zero time to go to the beach since we got here, so busy working and dealing with parent stuff. There are probably very nice beaches here, but we have not seen them yet. I had wanted to move to the coast, and not where we moved, in the mountains, but we had to buy something at a distance, and prices had gotten too high where we wanted to move, so we bought sight unseen, closer to my parents assisted living, well hour and 45 minutes. Prices had gotten completely out of site anything closer to them. So we bought nearest affordable house that had space for the dogs and a barn for my husband to work in. Affected by Covid lockdowns, could not travel into the state, although I guess we probably could have, in retrospect, but the parents were not visitable in the assisted living, as that was locked down, along with the state itself.

Now the towns we did like on the coast are stratospheric--prices 4 times what they were when we started looking 5 years ago.
