Ash Point Beach Details

Due to its more rocky nature, Ash Point Beach is not the most popular spot to visit, making it the perfect beach to go to for some quiet and fun in the surf. Right next to the mouth of West Penobscot Bay, this is a great little spot to get out and stretch some legs after a long road trip to mid-coast or before heading onwards. From the sand and rocky shores, visitors will find views of the stunning Gulf of Maine, Vinalhaven and North Haven, and Dix Island Harbor.
