Beach

Listed & Verified

Swifts Neck Beach

Bay / Sound

Swifts Neck Beach sits on a wide bend of the Wareham River near its mouth at Buzzards Bay. A mix of sand and grass and a network of tidal creeks make it a calm, family-friendly spot good for swimming, wading, kayaking, and saltwater fishing. At low tide the mudflats are full of hermit crabs and clams - great for kids exploring tide pools. A concrete boat ramp and seasonal restrooms are on site; no lifeguards.

Shell Point Beach

Bay / Sound

Shell Point Beach sits on a point overlooking the busy Onset Bay to the east and the calmer Shell Point Bay to the west. Its warm, shallow water and sandy shore backed by a grassy park make it especially good for families with small children, while the open western view is a fine sunset spot. A great launch point for kayaks and paddleboards, and you can walk the sand to neighboring Onset Beach.

Little Harbor Beach

Bay / Sound

Little Harbor Beach is a 22-acre resident beach on the open waters of Buzzards Bay. A sandy shoreline with gentle waves makes it popular with Wareham families for swimming and beachcombing, while a quiet salt marsh on one side invites exploration on foot or by kayak. Wide views of water and sky and good birding (including piping plovers) round out the appeal.

Tempest Knob

Bay / Sound

Tempest Knob is a town waterfront access point and boat-ramp area on the Wareham River near Buzzards Bay.
