Mother's Beach Details
Kennebunk's small but cute stretch of sand is aptly known as Mother's Beach. Small enough to watch the little ones, local enough that it doesn’t get too crowded, and with a soft surf so the older kids can still play in the water, parents can relax here a little and enjoy the quiet surf with the other young families. If nice waves weren’t enough, there is also also a playground right behind the beach for kids to wear themselves out on before heading home after a playdate in the sun. Facilities: Playground

An idyllic small Maine beach located at the mouth of the Moussam River and bordered by sand dunes and wild roses. The majority of the beach is privately owned and off-limits, however, the northern section which borders the Moussam River is open to the public and leased to the town. Parking is extremely limited - even early in the morning - so it's best to visit via walking or biking. Facilities: Restrooms
